Living Land Plants

Famous quotes containing the words living, land and/or plants:

    America is the world’s living myth. There’s no sense of wrong when you kill an American or blame America for some local disaster. This is our function, to be character types, to embody recurring themes that people can use to comfort themselves, justify themselves and so on. We’re here to accommodate. Whatever people need, we provide. A myth is a useful thing.
    Don Delillo (b. 1926)

    Far out of sight forever stands the sea,
    Bounding the land with pale tranquillity.
    Yvor Winters (1900–1968)

    All plants move, but they don’t usually pull themselves out of the ground and chase you.
    Philip Yordan (b. 1913)
