Famous quotes containing the words years and/or labeled:

“The great war that broke so suddenly upon the world two years ago, and which has swept up within its flame so great a part of the civilized world, has affected us very profoundly.... With its causes and its objects we are not concerned. The obscure fountains from which its stupendous flood has burst we are not interested to search for or explore.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

“Had middle class black women begun a movement in which they had labeled themselves “oppressed,” no one would have taken them seriously.”
