“The canyon country does not always inspire love. To many it appears barren, hostile, repellent - a fearsome mostly waterless land of rock and heat, sand dunes and quicksand, cactus, thornbrush, scorpion, rattlesnake, and agaraphobic distances. To those who see our land in that manner, the best reply is, yes, you are right, it is a dangerous and terrible place. Enter at your own risk. Carry water. Avoid the noonday sun. Try to ignore the vultures.

“I've had a reoccurring dream about hanging out with Britney Spears, so maybe it would be fun to chill with her for a bit? Like, see what makes her tick. I had this dream once about Britney, that we were going to get married or something, and so I had to meet her parents but we were stuck on a beach in these sand dunes - and at this point between the dreams and self-portrait, you know way too much about me.” KnowsWaySelfDreamWould BeFunBitsParentToo MuchMarriedStuckBeachSandHanging OutPortraitsChillSpearsTickSelf PortraitSand Dunes Author:Gabriel Mann
“To a person who expects every desert to be barren sand dunes, the Sonoran must come as a surprise. Not only are there no dunes, there's no sand. At least not the sort of sand you find at the beach. The ground does have a sandy color to it, or gray, but your feet won't sink in. It's hard, as if it's been tamped. And pebbly. And glinting with -- what else -- mica.” IfsPersonsDoeHardFeetColorSurpriseDesertBeachSandGrayBarrenSandySand Dunes Author:Jerry Spinelli

“The trebling of the population in this small and impoverished country, flowing with milk and honey but not with sufficient water, rich in rocks and sand dunes but poor in natural resources and vital raw materials, has been no easy task: Indeed, practical men, with their eyes fixed upon things as they are, regarded it as an empty and insubstantial utopian dream.” MenHas BeensCountryDreamEyeEasyWaterNaturalPoorRichRocksMaterialsResourcesTasksEmptyPopulationIsraelPracticalsFixedSufficientSandHoneyMilkNatural ResourcesUtopianRaw MaterialsEasy TasksMilk And HoneySand Dunes Author:David Ben-Gurion
