Famous quotes containing the word africa:

    “Are you there, Africa with the bulging chest and oblong thigh? Sulking Africa, wrought of iron, in the fire, Africa of the millions of royal slaves, deported Africa, drifting continent, are you there? Slowly you vanish, you withdraw into the past, into the tales of castaways, colonial museums, the works of scholars.”
    —Jean Genet (1910–1986)

    “In Africa I had indeed found a sufficiently frightful kind of loneliness but the isolation of this American ant heap was even more shattering.”
    —Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    “America is not civil, whilst Africa is barbarous.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
