Colored Lines

Famous quotes containing the words colored and/or lines:

“Seeing their children touched and seared and wounded by race prejudice is one of the heaviest crosses which colored women have to bear.”

“To understand
The signs that stars compose, we need depend
Only on stars that are entirely there
And the apparent space between them. There
Never need be lines between them, puzzling
Our sense of what is what.”
—John Hollander (b. 1929)
