Famous quotes containing the word conditions:

    The Supreme Court would have pleased me more if they had concerned themselves about enforcing the compulsory education provisions for Negroes in the South as is done for white children. The next ten years would be better spent in appointing truant officers and looking after conditions in the homes from which the children come. Use to the limit what we already have.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    The strong sunlight, the wind from the sea,
    all the conditions of its existence,
    may have flaked off the paint, if ever it was painted,
    and made it homelier than it was.
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    One cannot divine nor forecast the conditions that will make happiness; one only stumbles upon them by chance, in a lucky hour, at the world’s end somewhere, and hold fast to the days, as to fortune or fame.
    Willa Cather (1876–1947)
