Famous quotes containing the words south and/or america:

    “The South is very beautiful but its beauty makes one sad because the lives that people live here, and have lived here, are so ugly.”
    —James Baldwin (1924–1987)

    “America is the world’s living myth. There’s no sense of wrong when you kill an American or blame America for some local disaster. This is our function, to be character types, to embody recurring themes that people can use to comfort themselves, justify themselves and so on. We’re here to accommodate. Whatever people need, we provide. A myth is a useful thing.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)
