Deepest Lake

Famous quotes containing the words deepest and/or lake:

    “The Wye is hush’d nor moved along,
    And hush’d my deepest grief of all,
    When fill’d with tears that cannot fall,
    I brim with sorrow drowning song.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “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)
