Black Silver

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or silver:

    I came along at a time when there was a demand to give men greater visibility and opportunity. In white society they were saying, “Women can’t do it.” In black society, they were saying, “Women do too much.” It’s a diabolical situation.

    Seine and Piave are silver spoons,
    But the spoonbowl-metal is thin and worn,
