Famous quotes containing the words torque and/or control:
“Poetry uses the hub of a torque converter for a jello mold.”
—Diane Glancy (b. 1941)
“... the black girls didn’t get these pills because their black ministers were up on the pulpit saying that birth control pills were black genocide. What I’m saying is that black men have exploited black women.... They didn’t want them to have any choice about their reproductive health. And if you can’t control your reproduction, you can’t control your life.”
—Joycelyn Elders (b. 1933)
