Cardboard

Famous quotes containing the word cardboard:

    Once upon a time there were three little foxes
    Who didn’t wear stockings, and they didn’t wear sockses,
    But they all had handkerchiefs to blow their noses,
    And they kept their handkerchiefs in cardboard boxes.
    —A.A. (Alan Alexander)

    On the Times Square sidewalk
    we shuffle along, cardboard signs
    Stop the War
    slung round our necks.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    I don’t see black people as victims even though we are exploited. Victims are flat, one- dimensional characters, someone rolled over by a steamroller so you have a cardboard person. We are far more resilient and more rounded than that. I will go on showing there’s more to us than our being victimized. Victims are dead.
    Kristin Hunter (b. 1931)
