Famous quotes containing the words level and/or league:
“... when you do get a job everybody says, Well, they wanted a black woman, which necessarily puts you on a level where you have to prove yourself above being a woman and being black.... Now, I would say, in certain situations, it helped me simply because I was mildly attractive, not because I was black or a woman. That gets you more mileage than anything else.... God help you if youre not an attractive woman.”
—Theresa Brown (b. 1957)
“Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
Forward the Light Brigade!”
—Alfred Tennyson (18091892)
