Leaf Lake

Famous quotes containing the words leaf and/or lake:

    With fairest flowers
    Whilst summer lasts and I live here, Fidele,
    I’ll sweeten thy sad grave. Thou shalt not lack
    The flower that’s like thy face, pale primrose, nor
    The azured harebell, like thy veins; no, nor
    The leaf of eglantine, whom not to slander,
    Outsweetened not thy breath.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    His education lay like a film of white oil on the black lake of his barbarian consciousness. For this reason, the things he said were hardly interesting at all. Only what he was.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
