"How can the mind take hold of such a country? Generations of invaders have tried, but they remain in exile. The important towns they build are only retreats, their quarrels the malaise of men who cannot find their way home. India knows of their trouble.

She is not a promise, only an appeal."
"Africa had a way of coming back and simply covering everything up again."
"Washington is an endless series of mock palaces clearly built for clerks."
"Spring has many American faces. There are cities where it will come and go in a day and counties where it hangs around and never quite gets there. Summer is drawn blinds in Louisiana, long winds in Wyoming, shade of elms and maples in New England."
"Up to 80 percent of the fish that we catch spend at least part of their lives in estuaries."
"All the real things in Russia are done in the villages."
