Famous quotes containing the words lake and/or catherine:

    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.

    —Mary Catherine Bateson (20th century)
