Robert Macfarlane Quotes

I Felt My Way Up The Cliffs To The South Until I Found A Patch Of Machair A Few Yards Long And A Few Wide, Where I Pitched My Tent And Settled To Sleep. The Stars Stood Sharp Above. It Felt Odd To Be On Rock Again, Not Sea, To Think Of The Ground On Which I Lay Extending Down To The Floor Of The Minch. Lying There, I Could Still Feel The Day At Sea, Blood And Water Slopping About In My Bag Of Skin, The Tidal Churn Of My Liquid Body, A Roll And Sway In The Skull. My Mind Beat Back North Against The Current, Thinking Of The Puffins' Flight, The Lines We Leave Behind Us, The Spacious Weave, Our Wake, Then Sleep.
