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. – Henry David Thoreau
But I do see the good side of water now. How good it is when you’re really thirsty, how it glitters and gurgles! How alive it is! – G.K. Chesterton, The Flying Inn, 1914
And its sad because its like a surprise to people – almost an anomaly – when artists are actually refined and trained on an instrument. Thats the last thing people think about. – Vanessa Carlton
