Flakes

Famous quotes containing the word flakes:

“Some flakes have lost their way, and grope back upward, when
Meeting those meandering down they turn and descend again.”

The dazzled flakes and splinters disappear.
The seal is as relaxed as dirt, perdu.”

In large white flakes falling on the city brown,
Stealthily and perpetually settling and loosely lying,
Hushing the latest traffic of the drowsy town;”
