Africa

The Book Of Common Prayer in Africa is the same as the ones in other places. Each province has its own signature which is put on the cover pages of the book as there are some words that differ from province to another. In Yoruba it is known as "Iwe Adura ti gbogbo Ijo Anglikan".

Famous quotes containing the word africa:

    There has never been in history another such culture as the Western civilization M a culture which has practiced the belief that the physical and social environment of man is subject to rational manipulation and that history is subject to the will and action of man; whereas central to the traditional cultures of the rivals of Western civilization, those of Africa and Asia, is a belief that it is environment that dominates man.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    America is not civil, whilst Africa is barbarous.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I who have cursed
    The drunken officer of British rule, how choose
    Between this Africa and the English tongue I love?
    Betray them both, or give back what they give?
    How can I face such slaughter and be cool?
    How can I turn from Africa and live?
    Derek Walcott (b. 1930)
