Slave Societies

Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or societies:

“There shall be no slave in your home, male or female: Least of all the mother of your son.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

“There is no human failure greater than to launch a profoundly important endeavour and then leave it half done. This is what the West has done with its colonial system. It shook all the societies in the world loose from their old moorings. But it seems indifferent whether or not they reach safe harbour in the end.”
—Barbara Ward (1914–1981)
