Defence Talk

Famous quotes containing the words defence and/or talk:

    Education must have two foundations—morality as a support for virtue, prudence as a defence for self against the vices of others. By letting the balance incline to the side of morality, you only make dupes or martyrs; by letting it incline to the other, you make calculating egoists.
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)

    ...I really hope no white person ever has cause to write about me
    because they never understand Black love is Black wealth and they’ll
    probably talk about my hard childhood and never understand that
    all the while I was quite happy.
    Nikki Giovanni (b. 1943)
