Famous quotes containing the word cake:

    The first year was like icing.
    Then the cake started to show through.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “It is such a beautiful day I had to write you a letter
    From the tower, and to show I’m not mad:
    I only slipped on the cake of soap of the air
    And drowned in the bathtub of the world....”
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    We had hardly got out of the streets of Bangor before I began to be exhilarated by the sight of the wild fir and spruce tops, and those of other primitive evergreens, peering through the mist in the horizon. It was like the sight and odor of cake to a schoolboy.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
