Ransom Canyon

Famous quotes containing the words ransom and/or canyon:

    Great lovers lie in Hell, the stubborn ones
    Infatuate of the flesh upon the bones;
    Stuprate, they rend each other when they kiss,
    The pieces kiss again, no end to this.
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    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)
