Famous quotes containing the words colonial and/or day:
“Are you there, Africa with the bulging chest and oblong thigh? Sulking Africa, wrought of iron, in the fire, Africa of the millions of royal slaves, deported Africa, drifting continent, are you there? Slowly you vanish, you withdraw into the past, into the tales of castaways, colonial museums, the works of scholars.”
—Jean Genet (1910–1986)
“A day in April never came so sweet,
To show how costly summer was at hand,
As this fore-spurrer comes before his lord.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
