Race

Famous quotes containing the word race:

    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    “They cannot scare me with their empty spaces
    Between stars—on stars where no human race is.
    I have it in me so much nearer home
    To scare myself with my own desert places.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The disappearing last of him
    And of his race starvation slim,
    Oh, years ago—ten thousand years.”
