Red Dragon Conspirators

Famous quotes containing the words red, dragon and/or conspirators:

    From behind the red gates comes the stink of wine and meat, while along the road sides lie the bones of the frozen dead.
    Chinese proverb.

    The dragon wing of night o’erspreads the earth.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    If we are on the outside, we assume a conspiracy is the perfect working of a scheme. Silent nameless men with unadorned hearts. A conspiracy is everything that ordinary life is not. It’s the inside game, cold, sure, undistracted, forever closed off to us. We are the flawed ones, the innocents, trying to make some rough sense of the daily jostle. Conspirators have a logic and a daring beyond our reach. All conspiracies are the same taut story of men who find coherence in some criminal act.
    Don Delillo (b. 1926)
