Famous quotes containing the words race and/or details:

    The whole race is a poet that writes down
    The eccentric propositions of its fate.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Then he told the news media
    the strange details of his death
    and they hammered him up in the marketplace
    and sold him and sold him and sold him.
    My death the same.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
