Famous quotes containing the words disc, games and/or adapted:

    Soundless as dots—on a Disc of Snow—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    Criticism occupies the lowest place in the literary hierarchy: as regards form, almost always; and as regards moral value, incontestably. It comes after rhyming games and acrostics, which at least require a certain inventiveness.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
