Famous quotes containing the words mary and/or blank:
“If Mary came would Mary
Forgive, as Mothers may,
And sad and second Saviour
Furnish us today?”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“Apart from their other characteristics, the outstanding thing about China’s 600 million people is that they are “poor and blank.” This may seem a bad thing, but in reality it is a good thing. Poverty gives rise to the desire for change, the desire for action and the desire for revolution. On a blank sheet of paper free from any mark, the freshest and most beautiful pictures can be painted.”
—Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
