Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


"Too hot," was Saxon's verdict, as she gazed across the
shimmering level of the vast Sacramento Valley. "No redwoods. No
hills. No forests. No manzanita. No madronos. Lonely, and sad--"


"An' like the river islands," Billy interpolated. "Richer in
hell, but looks too much like hard work. It'll do for those
that's stuck on hard work--God knows, they's nothin' here to
induce a fellow to knock off ever for a bit of play. No fishin',
no huntin', nothin' but work. I'd work myself, if I had to live
here."
