Famous quotes containing the words black and/or spring:

    “When a bachelor of philosophy from the Antilles refuses to apply for certification as a teacher on the grounds of his color I say that philosophy has never saved anyone. When someone else strives and strains to prove to me that black men are as intelligent as white men I say that intelligence has never saved anyone: and that is true, for, if philosophy and intelligence are invoked to proclaim the equality of men, they have also been employed to justify the extermination of men.”
    —Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)

    “As if the spring were all your own,
    What are you when the rose is blown?”
    —Sir Henry Wotton (1568–1639)
