“And the one bird singing alone to his nest,
And the one star over the tower.

And the letter that brought me back my ring;
And it all seem’d then, in the waste of life,”
—“Owen” “Meredith” (1831–1891)
“Someone is always at my elbow reminding me that I am the grand-daughter of slaves. It fails to register depression with me. Slavery is sixty years in the past.

—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
