Rachel Carson Quotes About Enemies

Quotes about: Enemies

• Why should we tolerate a diet of weak poisons, a home in insipid surroundings, a circle of acquaintances who are not quite our enemies, the noise of motors with just enough relief to prevent insanity? Who would want to live in a world which is just not quite fatal?

  Rachel Carson

  Home, Circles, Insanity

  Rachel Carson (2002). “Silent Spring”, p.12, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

• It was a spring without voices. On the mornings that had once throbbed with the dawn chorus of robins, catbirds, doves, jays, wrens, and scores of other bird voices there was now no sound; only silence lay over the fields and woods and marsh... Even the streams were now lifeless... No witchcraft, no enemy action had silenced the rebirth of new life in this stricken world. The people had done it themselves.

  Rachel Carson

  Morning, Spring, Voice

  Rachel Carson (2002). “Silent Spring”, p.2, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

• No witchcraft, no enemy action had silenced the rebirth of new life in this stricken world. The people had done it themselves.

  Rachel Carson

  People, Enemy, Done

  Rachel Carson (2002). “Silent Spring”, p.3, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
