Dust Particles

Famous quotes containing the words dust and/or particles:

    We met. But all
    We did that day was mingle great and small
    Footprints in summer dust as if we drew
    The figure of our being less than two
    But more than one as yet.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    In another’s sentences the thought, though it may be immortal, is as it were embalmed, and does not strike you, but here it is so freshly living, even the body of it not having passed through the ordeal of death, that it stirs in the very extremities, and the smallest particles and pronouns are all alive with it. It is not simply dictionary it, yours or mine, but IT.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
