Wilde Lake

Famous quotes containing the words wilde and/or lake:

“The well-bred contradict other people. The wise contradict themselves.”

“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)
