Big South

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or south:

“Towns oftener swamp one than carry one out onto the big ocean of life.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

“Whenever I’m asked why Southern writers particularly have a penchant for writing about freaks, I say it is because we are still able to recognize one. To be able to recognize a freak, you have to have some conception of the whole man, and in the South the general conception of man is still, in the main, theological.”
—Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
