Underground State

Famous quotes containing the words underground and/or state:

“Political correctness is driving machismo underground and recalling effeminacy from exile.”

“Irish? In truth I would not want to be anything else. It is a state of mind as well as an actual country. It is being at odds with other nationalities, having quite different philosophy about pleasure, about punishment, about life, and about death. At least it does not leave one pusillanimous.”
—Edna O’Brien (b. c. 1932)
