“But there'll be plenty of room on Earth then because right now, what is it?-Only one-fifth of the Earth's surface is land, right? Whereas then there will be no more sea, it'll all be land, seas will be gone.

But the foreigner destroys, cuts down the trees, drains the water, so that the water supply is altered, and in a short time the soil, once the sod is turned under, is cropped out and, next, it starts to blow away as it has blown away in every old country and as I had seen it start to blow in Canada. The earth gets tired of being exploited.” CountryAgeEarthNextWaterCuttingTreeLandHarmonyTiredBlowSoilCanadaContinentsForeignersAlteredDrainsShort TimeBlown AwaySod Book:The Hemingway Collection Source: The Hemingway Collection
“I know the woman has no soul, I know The woman has no possibilities Of soul or mind or heart, but merely is The masterpiece of flesh: well, be it so. It is her flesh that I adore; I go Thirsting afresh to drain her empty kiss. I know she cannot love: it is not this My vanquished heart implores in overthrow. Tyrannously I crave, I crave alone, Her splendid body, Earth's most eloquent Music, divinest human harmony; Her body now a silent instrument, That 'neath my touch shall wake and make for me The strains I have but dreamed of, never known.” KnowsMindHumansWellsHeartSoulBodyEarthWomenKnownPossibilityKissingEmptyHarmonyInstrumentsSilentFleshAdoreMasterpieceStrainCraveSplendidDrainsEloquent Book:Poems Source: Poems
