Black Members

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or members:

    O God, oh! of thine only worthy blood,
    And my tears, make a heavenly Lethean flood,
    And drown in it my sins’ black memory.
    That thou remember them, some claim as debt;
    I think it mercy, if thou wilt forget.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    For splendor, there must somewhere be rigid economy. That the head of the house may go brave, the members must be plainly clad, and the town must save that the State may spend.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
