Colored Tail

Famous quotes containing the words colored and/or tail:

“Child with continuing cling issued his No in final fire,
Kissed back the colored maid,
Not wise enough to freeze or be afraid.
Conscious of kindness, easy creature bond.
Love had been handy and rapid to respond.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

“You always strain tuh be de bell cow, never be de tail uh nothin’.”
