Fire Clan

Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or clan:

    “Your eyes were frosted starlight,
    Your heart fire and snow.
    Who was it said, “I love you”?
    Alice: Mother, let me go!”
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    “We cannot think of a legitimate argument why ... whites and blacks need be affected by the knowledge that an aggregate difference in measured intelligence is genetic instead of environmental.... Given a chance, each clan ... will encounter the world with confidence in its own worth and, most importantly, will be unconcerned about comparing its accomplishments line-by-line with those of any other clan. This is wise ethnocentricism.”
    —Richard Herrnstein (1930–1994)
