Famous quotes containing the words loch and/or awe:
“Oh, many a day have I made good ale in the glen,
That came not of stream, or malt, like the brewing of men;
My bed was the ground, my roof the greenwood above,
And the wealth that I sought, one far kind glance from my love.”
—Unknown. The Outlaw of Loch Lene (l. 1–4)
“I had as lief not be as live to be
In awe of such a thing as I myself.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
