Flat Speckled Chalcedony

Famous quotes containing the words flat and/or speckled:

    They are not flat surfaces
    Having curved outlines.
    They are round
    Tapering toward the top.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    It’s lovely to live on a raft. We had the sky, up there, all speckled with stars, and we used to lay on our backs and look up at them, and discuss about whether they was made, or only just happened—Jim he allowed they was made, but I allowed they happened; I judged it would have took too long to make so many.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
