Mountain Lake Hamlet

Famous quotes containing the words mountain, lake and/or hamlet:

    The broken ridge of the hills
    was the line of a lover’s shoulder,
    his arm-turn, the path to the hills,
    the sudden leap and swift thunder
    of mountain boulders, his laugh.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    They know that Hamlet and Lear are gay;
    Gaiety transfiguring all that dread.
