Inventing the Abbotts  - Quotes

 Doug Holt:
Backyard nudity is hypocritical. It's insincere. People should do and say exactly what they feel and think and not try to hide things.

Shelley Winters  - Quotes

 I think on-stage nudity is disgusting, shameful and damaging to all things American. But if I were 22 with a great body, it would be artistic, tasteful, patriotic, and a progressive religious experience.

I've never been naked in front of anyone in my life.

Not even Frank?

Robert Penn Warren  - Quotes

 Season late, day late, sun just down, and the sky

Cold gunmetal but with a wash of live rose, and she,

From water the color of sky except where

Her motion has fractured it to shivering splinters of silver,

Rises. Stands on the raw grass. Against

The new-curdling night of spruces, nakedness

Glimmers and, at bosom and flank, drips

With fluent silver. The man,



Some ten strokes out, but now hanging

Motionless in the gunmetal water, feet

Cold with the coldness of depth, all

History dissolving from him, is

Nothing but an eye. Is an eye only. Sees



The body that is marked by his use, and Time's,

Rise, and in the abrupt and unsustaining element of air,

Sway, lean, grapple the pond-bank. Sees

How, with that posture of female awkwardness that is,

And is the stab of, suddenly perceived grace, breasts bulge down in

The pure curve of their weight and buttocks

Moon up and, in swelling unity,

Are silver and glimmer. Then



The body is erect, she is herself, whatever

Self she may be, and with an end of the towel grasped in each hand,

Slowly draws it back and forth across back and buttocks, but

With face lifted toward the high sky, where

The over-wash of rose color now fails. Fails, though no star

Yet throbs there. The towel, forgotten,

Does not move now. The gaze

Remains fixed on the sky. The body,



Profiled against the darkness of spruces, seems

To draw to itself, and condense in its whiteness, what light

In the sky yet lingers or, from

The metallic and abstract severity of water, lifts. The body,

With the towel now trailing loose from one hand, is

A white stalk from which the face flowers gravely toward the high sky.

This moment is non-sequential and absolute, and admits

Of no definition, for it

Subsumes all other, and sequential, moments, by which

Definition might be possible. The woman,



Face yet raised, wraps,

With a motion as though standing in sleep,

The towel about her body, under her breasts, and,

Holding it there hieratic as lost Egypt and erect,

Moves up the path that, stair-steep, winds

Into the clamber and tangle of growth. Beyond

The lattice of dusk-dripping leaves, whiteness

Dimly glimmers, goes. Glimmers and is gone, and the man,



Suspended in his darkling medium, stares

Upward where, though not visible, he knows

She moves, and in his heart he cries out that, if only

He had such strength, he would put his hand forth

And maintain it over her to guard, in all

Her out-goings and in-comings, from whatever

Inclemency of sky or slur of the world's weather

Might ever be. In his heart he cries out. Above



Height of the spruce-night and heave of the far mountain, he sees

The first star pulse into being. It gleams there.



I do not know what promise it makes him.

And I don't want them dancing naked under the full moon!
Aunt Jet Owens:
No, of course. The nudity is entirely optional. As you well remember!

Norman Maclean  - Quotes

 But first of all he is a woodsman, and you aren't a woodsman unless you have such a feeling for topography that you can look at the earth and see what it would look like without any woods or covering on it. It's something like the gift all men wish for when they or young-- or old-- of being able to look through a woman's clothes and see her body, possibly even a little of her character.
