Famous quotes containing the words black and/or border:
“As blacks, we need not be afraid that encouraging moral development, a conscience and guilt will prevent social action. Black children without the ability to feel a normal amount of guilt will victimize their parents, relatives and community first. They are unlikely to be involved in social action to improve the black community. Their self-centered personalities will cause them to look out for themselves without concern for others, black or white.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
“Although our love is waning, let us stand

Together in that hour of gentleness
When the poor tired child, Passion, falls asleep....”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
