Famous quotes containing the words bachelor of, bachelor, christian and/or education:
“When a bachelor of philosophy from the Antilles refuses to apply for certification as a teacher on the grounds of his color I say that philosophy has never saved anyone. When someone else strives and strains to prove to me that black men are as intelligent as white men I say that intelligence has never saved anyone: and that is true, for, if philosophy and intelligence are invoked to proclaim the equality of men, they have also been employed to justify the extermination of men.”
—Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)
“‘I told him, Look at all those fightings and killings down there,

—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
“No egoism is so insufferable as that of the Christian with regard to his soul.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1965)
