Race People

Famous quotes containing the words race and/or people:

    ‘Twas mercy brought me from my Pagan land,
    Taught my benighted soul to understand
    That there’s a God, that there’s a Saviour too:
    Once I redemption neither sought nor knew.
    Some view our sable race with scornful eye,
    “Their color is a diabolic die.”
    Remember, Christians, Negroes, black as Cain,
    May be refin’d, and join th’ angelic train.
    Phillis Wheatley (c. 1753–1784)

    Of course you’re always at liberty to judge the critic. Judge people as critics, however, and you’ll condemn them all!
    Henry James (1843–1916)
