Famous quotes containing the word johnson:
“I am a person. I have feelings. I have needs. I have wants. I’m sittin’ here and nobody sees me. Everybody just looks over me and walks on past because I’m black, because I’m a woman, because I’m poor, because I have no education. But I’m still here.”
—Cora Lee Johnson (b. 1925)
