Famous quotes containing the words color and/or codes:

    Actors work and slave—and it is the color of your hair that can determine your fate in the end.
    Helen Hayes (1900–1993)

    ... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
