Island Nights

Famous quotes containing the words island and/or nights:

“Your kind doesn’t just kill men. You murder their spirits, you strangle their last breath of hope and freedom, so that you, the chosen few, can rule your slaves in ease and luxury. You’re a sadist just like the others, Heiser, with no resource but violence and no feeling but fear, the kind you’re feeling now. You’re drowning, Heiser, drowning in the ocean of blood around this barren little island you call the New Order.”
—Curtis Siodmak (1902–1988)

“I remember
a dream two nights ago: the voice,
‘the artist must
create himself or be born again.’”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
