Famous quotes containing the words racial and/or purity:
“... all Americans are the prisoners of racial prejudice.”
—Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)
“Hoping that, when the devil days of my hurt
Drag out to their last dregs and I resume
On such legs as are left me, in such heart
As I can manage, remember to go home,
My taste will not have turned insensitive
To honey and bread old purity could love.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
