Famous quotes containing the word terms:
“Of course I’m a black writer.... I’m not just a black writer, but categories like black writer, woman writer and Latin American writer aren’t marginal anymore. We have to acknowledge that the thing we call “literature” is more pluralistic now, just as society ought to be. The melting pot never worked. We ought to be able to accept on equal terms everybody from the Hassidim to Walter Lippmann, from the Rastafarians to Ralph Bunche.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
“As poverty has been reduced in terms of mere survival, it has become more profound in terms of our way of life.”
—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
“I hope that you live on good terms with yourself and the gods.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
