Famous quotes containing the words interior and/or plains:

    “The night
    Makes everything grotesque. Is it because
    Night is the nature of man’s interior world?”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “The Plains are not forgiving. Anything that is shallow—the easy optimism of a homesteader; the false hope that denies geography, climate, history; the tree whose roots don’t reach ground water—will dry up and blow away.”
    —Kathleen Norris (b. 1947)
