Famous quotes containing the words black and/or theology:

    “We lay long in the immense tide
    Of shade and shadowy desire
    And saw the dusk assail the wall,
    The black surge, mounting, crash the stone!
    Companion of this lust, we fall,
    I said lest we should die alone.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “A theology whose god is a metaphor is wasting its time.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
