Famous quotes containing the words defence, white and/or paper:
“Mankind have such a deep stake in inward illumination, that there is much to be said by the hermit or monk in defence of his life of thought and prayer.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“...black women write differently from white women. This is the most marked difference of all those combinations of black and white, male and female. It’s not so much that women write differently from men, but that black women write differently from white women. Black men don’t write very differently from white men.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
“Gentleman. A man who buys two of the same morning paper from the doorman of his favorite nightclub when he leaves with his girl.”
—Marlene Dietrich (1904–1992)
