Race

Famous quotes containing the word race:

    The Goddamn human race deserves itself, and as far as I’m concerned it can have it.
    Elizabeth Janeway (b. 1913)

    We are the party of all labor.
    The whole earth shall be ours to share
    And every race and craft our neighbor.
    No idle class shall linger there
    Like vultures on the wealth we render
    From field and factory, mill and mine.
    Tomorrow’s sun will rise in splendor
    And light us till the end of time.
    Eugène Pottier (1816–1887)

    For it is the nature and end of this relation, that they should represent the human race to each other. All that is in the world, which is or ought to be known, is cunningly wrought into the texture of man, of woman.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
