Famous quotes containing the words bitter and/or lake:

    “I had this thought a while ago,
    “My darling cannot understand
    What I have done, or what would do
    In this blind bitter land.”
    And I grew weary of the sun”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “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)
