Trail Smoke

Famous quotes containing the words trail and/or smoke:

“The trail of the serpent reaches into all the lucrative professions and practices of man. Each has its own wrongs. Each finds a tender and very intelligent conscience a disqualification for success. Each requires of the practitioner a certain shutting of the eyes, a certain dapperness and compliance, an acceptance of customs, a sequestration from the sentiments of generosity and love, a compromise of private opinion and lofty integrity.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“He’s like an express train running through a tunnel—one shriek, sparks, smoke and gone.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
