Buried Onions Quotes

“going back and forth, back and forth, getting nowhere”
― Gary Soto, Buried Onions

“The black asphalt wouls shimmer with vapors I had a theory about those vapors...not released by the sun but by a huge onion buried under the city. This onion made us cry... I thought about the giant onion, that remarkable bulb of sadness.”
― Gary Soto, Buried Onions
