Famous quotes containing the words lake, washington, floating and/or bridge:

    A lake is the landscape’s most beautiful and expressive feature. It is earth’s eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature. The fluviatile trees next the shore are the slender eyelashes which fringe it, and the wooded hills and cliffs around are its overhanging brows.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I do not mean to exclude altogether the idea of patriotism. I know it exists, and I know it has done much in the present contest. But I will venture to assert, that a great and lasting war can never be supported on this principle alone. It must be aided by a prospect of interest, or some reward.
    —George Washington (1732–1799)

    Novels as dull as dishwater, with the grease of random sentiments floating on top.
    Italo Calvino (1923–1985)

    What need the bridge much broader than the flood?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
