Lake Clifton

Famous quotes containing the words lake and/or clifton:

    The best quality tea must have creases like the leathern boot of Tartar horsemen, curl like the dewlap of a mighty bullock, unfold like a mist rising out of a ravine, gleam like a lake touched by a zephyr, and be wet and soft like a fine earth newly swept by rain.
    Lu Yu (d. 804)

    Poetry is a matter of life, not just a matter of language.
    —Lucille Clifton (b. 1936)
