Famous quotes containing the words annual, wind, power and/or generation:
“...there was the annual Fourth of July picketing at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. ...I thought it was ridiculous to have to go there in a skirt. But I did it anyway because it was something that might possibly have an effect. I remember walking around in my little white blouse and skirt and tourists standing there eating their ice cream cones and watching us like the zoo had opened.”
—Martha Shelley, U.S. author and social activist. As quoted in Making History, part 3, by Eric Marcus (1992)
“The way leads to freedom, to freedom it goes. The old world must crumble. Awake, wind of dawn!”
—Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)
“By my soul I swear
There is no power in the tongue of man
To alter me.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The greatest significance of the present student generation is that it is through them that the point of view of the subjugated is finally and inexorably being expressed.”
—James Baldwin (1924–1987)
