Black Jungle

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or jungle:

    The realization that he is white in a black country, and respected for it, is the turning point in the expatriate’s career. He can either forget it, or capitalize on it. Most choose the latter.

    I shall be seeking ornaments of ivory,
    I shall be dying for a jungle fruit.

    O still green water in a stagnant pool!
    Arna Bontemps (1902–1973)
