Average Number

Famous quotes containing the words average and/or number:

    ...you don’t have to be as good as white people, you have to be better or the best. When Negroes are average, they fail, unless they are very, very lucky. Now, if you’re average and white, honey, you can go far. Just look at Dan Quayle. If that boy was colored he’d be washing dishes somewhere.
    Annie Elizabeth Delany (b. 1891)

    Love has its name borrowed by a great number of dealings and affairs that are attributed to it—in which it has no greater part than the Doge in what is done at Venice.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
