Famous quotes containing the words common and/or flowers:

    The common goal of 22 million Afro-Americans is respect as human beings, the God-given right to be a human being. Our common goal is to obtain the human rights that America has been denying us. We can never get civil rights in America until our human rights are first restored. We will never be recognized as citizens there until we are first recognized as humans.
    Malcolm X (1925–1965)

    When we locked up the house at night,
    We always locked the flowers outside
    And cut them off from window light.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
