Africa

The Book Of Common Prayer in Africa is the same as the ones in other places. Each province has its own signature which is put on the cover pages of the book as there are some words that differ from province to another. In Yoruba it is known as "Iwe Adura ti gbogbo Ijo Anglikan".

Famous quotes containing the word africa:

    I who have cursed
    The drunken officer of British rule, how choose
    Between this Africa and the English tongue I love?
    Betray them both, or give back what they give?
    How can I face such slaughter and be cool?
    How can I turn from Africa and live?
    Derek Walcott (b. 1930)

    America is not civil, whilst Africa is barbarous.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Are you there, Africa with the bulging chest and oblong thigh? Sulking Africa, wrought of iron, in the fire, Africa of the millions of royal slaves, deported Africa, drifting continent, are you there? Slowly you vanish, you withdraw into the past, into the tales of castaways, colonial museums, the works of scholars.
    Jean Genet (1910–1986)
