Famous quotes containing the words variety and/or stores:

    “Please stop using the word “Negro.”... We are the only human beings in the world with fifty-seven variety of complexions who are classed together as a single racial unit. Therefore, we are really truly colored people, and that is the only name in the English language which accurately describes us.”
    —Mary Church Terrell (1863–1954)

    “When their stores are full, idiots are considered wise.”
    —Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
