Black White White

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or white:

“I could see the thing
with its black head
but there wasn’t a tear left
and the scar of my wound
was hard.”

“Slavery is no scholar, no improver; it does not love the whistle of the railroad; it does not love the newspaper, the mail-bag, a college, a book or a preacher who has the absurd whim of saying what he thinks; it does not increase the white population; it does not improve the soil; everything goes to decay.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
