“The inference is, that God has restated the superiority of the West. God always does like that when a thousand white people surround one dark one. Dark people are always “bad” when they do not admit the Divine Plan like that. A certain Javanese man who sticks up for Indonesian Independence is very lowdown by the papers, and suspected of being a Japanese puppet.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“When you come to a place where you have to go left or right, go straight ahead.”
—Sister Ruth, U.S. nun. As quoted in Dakota, ch. 30, by Kathleen Norris (1993)
