Red Sea Region

Famous quotes containing the words red, sea and/or region:

    The curse of hell upon the sleek upstart
    That got the Captain finally on his back
    And took the red red vitals of his heart
    And made the kites to whet their beaks clack clack.
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    I have need of night people.
    I have need to see the bum dozing
    off on scag, the women in labor
    pushing forth a pink head,
    lord I need to fly I am sick of
    rocks and sea water....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    When the excessively shy force themselves to be forward, they are frequently surprisingly unsubtle and overdirect and even rude: they have entered an extreme region beyond their normal personality, an area of social crime where gradations don’t count; unavailable to them are the instincts and taboos that booming extroverts, who know the territory of self-advancement far better, can rely on.
    Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)
