A reader is not supposed to be aware that someone's written the story. He's supposed to be completely immersed, submerged in the environment.
Jack Vance
And in the afternoon they entered a land - but such a land! A land hung in mourning, darkened by gigantic cypresses, submerged; a land of reptiles, silence, shadow, decay.
George Washington Cable

John Sexton
I respected it. I submerged myself into it. So on a lot of days off I would go and fish with the fishermen and the families that ran the boats. I would go work the fields with farmers. I would go and talk with farmers about growing particular products for me.
Emeril Lagasse
I'm not aware that I was consciously influenced by any director, though these things often happen unnoticed, submerged in the unconscious.
William Peter Blatty
I've been kind of submerged in my own little geographic location for a really long time in Venice Beach.
Amber Tamblyn
It is in our idleness, in our dreams, that the submerged truth sometimes comes to the top.
Virginia Woolf
Sometimes you get submerged by emotion. I think it's very important to express it - which doesn't necessarily mean hitting someone.
Eric Cantona

Julio Cortazar
Writing a book is a very lonely business. You are totally cut off from the rest of the world, submerged in your obsessions and memories.
Mario Vargas Llosa
Yet it is in our idleness, in our dreams, that the submerged truth sometimes comes to the top.
Virginia Woolf
You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.
Paulo Coelho
