Russian Race Walker

Famous quotes containing the words russian, race and/or walker:

    A criminal trial is like a Russian novel: it starts with exasperating slowness as the characters are introduced to a jury, then there are complications in the form of minor witnesses, the protagonist finally appears and contradictions arise to produce drama, and finally as both jury and spectators grow weary and confused the pace quickens, reaching its climax in passionate final argument.
    Clifford Irving (b. 1930)

    He seemed to be of no particular race, or, in certain lights, to belong to some race that nobody else belonged to.
    William Gibson (b. 1948)

    Old Molly Means was a hag and a witch;
    Chile of the devil, the dark, and sitch.
    —Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)
