Famous quotes containing the words clan and/or duncan:

    We cannot think of a legitimate argument why ... whites and blacks need be affected by the knowledge that an aggregate difference in measured intelligence is genetic instead of environmental.... Given a chance, each clan ... will encounter the world with confidence in its own worth and, most importantly, will be unconcerned about comparing its accomplishments line-by-line with those of any other clan. This is wise ethnocentricism.
    Richard Herrnstein (1930–1994)

    This was once
    a city among men, a gathering together of spirit.
    It was measured by the Lord and found wanting.
    —Robert Duncan (b. 1919)
