Larger Levallois Flakes

Famous quotes containing the words larger and/or flakes:

“Sir Walter Raleigh might well be studied, if only for the excellence of his style, for he is remarkable in the midst of so many masters. There is a natural emphasis in his style, like a man’s tread, and a breathing space between the sentences, which the best of modern writing does not furnish. His chapters are like English parks, or say rather like a Western forest, where the larger growth keeps down the underwood, and one may ride on horseback through the openings.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Some flakes have lost their way, and grope back upward, when
Meeting those meandering down they turn and descend again.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
