Skinny Black

Famous quotes containing the words skinny black, skinny and/or black:

    In those days, the blag slag, the waste of the coal pits, had only begun to cover the side of our hill. Not enough to mar the countryside nor blacken the beauty of our village. For the colliery had only begun to poke its skinny black fingers between the green.
    Philip Dunne (1908–1992)

    Slim/Marie Brown: Whadya think you’re gonna do?
    Harry Morgan: I’m gonna get that wallet, Slim.
    Marie: I’d rather you wouldn’t call me Slim. I’m a little too skinny to take it kindly.
    Jules Furthman (1888–1960)

    Gone are the days when my heart was young and gay,
    Gone are my friends from the cotton fields away,
    Gone from the earth to a better land I know,
    I hear their gentle voices calling “Old Black Joe.”
    Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1864)
