Famous quotes containing the word flow:

    Our sense of these things changes and they change,
    Not as in metaphor, but in our sense
    Of them. So sense exceeds all metaphor.
    It exceeds the heavy changes of the light.
    It is like a flow of meanings with no speech
    And of as many meanings as of men.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    On the idle hill of summer,
    Sleepy with the flow of streams,
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    The joys of the evil flow away like a torrent.
    Jean Racine (1639–1699)
