Ayers Rock Quotes

“In some odd way that you don't understand and can't begin to articulate you feel and acquaintance with it--a familiarity on an unfamiliar level. Somewhere in the deep sediment of your being some long-dormant fragment of primordial memory, some little severed tail of DNA, has twitched or stirred. It is a motion much too faint to be understood or interpreted, but somehow you feel certain that this large, brooding, hypnotic presence has an importance to you at a species level--perhaps even at a sort of tadpole level--and that in some way your visit here is more than happenstance.”
― Bill Bryson, In a Sunburned Country

“The thing about Ayers Rock is that by the time you finally get there you are already a little sick of it.”
― Bill Bryson, In a Sunburned Country
