Famous quotes containing the words hunter and/or young:

    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)

    Our birth is nothing but our death begun.
    —Edward Young (1683–1765)
