Diverse/career

Famous quotes containing the words diverse and/or career:

    O wearisome condition of humanity!
    Born under one law, to another bound;
    Vainly begot, and yet forbidden vanity,
    Created sick, commanded to be sound.
    What meaneth nature by these diverse laws?
    Passion and reason self-division cause.
    Fulke Greville (1554–1628)

    A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
