Quotes
- the roads lay under us in white quilts
the telegraph-wires jerked tight and wrote
mantras on the sky- "A ló meghal a madarak kirepülnek" ("The Horse Dies the Birds Fly Away"), 1922, translated by Edwin Morgan
- at night we glimpsed the flowers blooming between women's legs
but we were vegetarians and misogynists- "A ló meghal a madarak kirepülnek" ("The Horse Dies the Birds Fly Away"), 1922, translated by Edwin Morgan.
