Famous quotes containing the words lake and/or coeur:
“Such were the first rude beginnings of a town. They spoke of the practicability of a winter road to the Moosehead Carry, which would not cost much, and would connect them with steam and staging and all the busy world. I almost doubted if the lake would be there,—the self-same lake,—preserve its form and identity, when the shores should be cleared and settled; as if these lakes and streams which explorers report never awaited the advent of the citizen.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Le coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne connait point. The heart has its reasons which reason does not know of.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
