Famous quotes containing the words lake and/or superior:

    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)

    I still lack to a considerable degree that naturally superior kind of manner that I would dearly like to possess.
    Heinrich Himmler (1900–1945)
