African Rock Art

Famous quotes containing the words african, rock and/or art:

    The writer in me can look as far as an African-American woman and stop. Often that writer looks through the African-American woman. Race is a layer of being, but not a culmination.
    Thylias Moss, African American poet. As quoted in the Wall Street Journal (May 12, 1994)

    “O what unlucky streak
    Twisting inside me, made me break the line?
    What was the rock my gliding childhood struck,
    And what bright unreal path has led me here?”
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    First-born, for whom by day and night I yearn,
    Balanced and just are all of God’s decrees;
    Thou art avenged, my first-born, sleep in peace!”
    James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
