Famous quotes containing the words black and/or canyon:

    “The monotonous dead clog me up and there is only
    black done in black that oozes from the strongbox.
    I must disembowel it and then set the heart, the legs,
    of two who were one upon a large woodpile
    and ignite, as I was once ignited, and let it whirl
    into flame....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “In a world that holds books and babies and canyon trails, why should one condemn oneself to live day-in, day-out with people one does not like, and sell oneself to chaperone and correct them?”
    —Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)
