Famous quotes containing the words black and/or rain:

    “The token woman carries a bouquet of hothouse celery
    and a stenographer’s pad; she will take
    the minutes, perk the coffee, smile
    like a plastic daisy and put out
    the black cat of her sensuous anger
    to howl on the fence all night.”
    —Marge Piercy (b. 1936)

    “The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk.
    The rain makes running pools in the gutter.
    The rain plays a little sleep-song on our roof at night—”
    —Langston Hughes (1902–1967)
