The Salt Roads (novel)

Famous quotes containing the words salt and/or roads:

    No American worth his salt should go around looking for a root. I advance this in all modesty, as a not unreasonable opinion.
    Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

    We joined long wagon trains moving south; we met hundreds of wagons going north; the roads east and west were crawling lines of families traveling under canvas, looking for work, for another foothold somewhere on the land.... The country was ruined, the whole world was ruined; nothing like this had ever happened before. There was no hope, but everyone felt the courage of despair.
    Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)
