Famous quotes containing the words south and/or america:

    I don’t have any doubts that there will be a place for progressive white people in this country in the future. I think the paranoia common among white people is very unfounded. I have always organized my life so that I could focus on political work. That’s all I want to do, and that’s all that makes me happy.
    Hettie V., South African white anti-apartheid activist and feminist. As quoted in Lives of Courage, ch. 21, by Diana E. H. Russell (1989)

    For America is a lady rocking on a porch in an unpainted house on an unused road but Anne does not see it.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
