Famous quotes containing the words south and/or head:

    “Whenever I’m asked why Southern writers particularly have a penchant for writing about freaks, I say it is because we are still able to recognize one. To be able to recognize a freak, you have to have some conception of the whole man, and in the South the general conception of man is still, in the main, theological.”
    —Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    “If thou dost slander her and torture me,
    Never pray more; abandon all remorse;
    On horror’s head horrors accumulate;
    Do deeds to make heaven weep, all earth amazed;
    For nothing canst thou to damnation add
    Greater than that.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
