Anyway, culture and nation are partners, inextricable from each other. National culture and nation, they are reciprocities.
Mark McMorris
A wedding is earth and water and a species of irreducible light and the flat belly of a harbor and a mango about to ripen and fall into gravity's caress and the waves subsiding and resuming their concerto in a minor key and the rush hour canceled by the stun of auspicious beginnings.
Mark McMorris
