Famous Susan L. Marshall Quotes

“Like clay was the sand in my fingers, moulding into hooded, echoing figures. Past clay voices mixed with sea water, gurgling words of anger and blame.

For Autumn hues are unravelling through the waning summer days. ‘Tis the season of yearning passion and lyric to my heart and mind. [Ever Changing Rhythms of Life]”

“Bare and glistening blooms do reach, longing to connect with my being. Setting my feminine spirit alight in a tightly wound body of darkness. The promise of fortuitous fruit, arouses my thirst to conquer a world of madness and dark rule, with womanhood as my stealth. [Spring’s Touch]”
