Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or symbols:

    ““You, that have not lived in thought but deed,
    Can have the purity of a natural force,
    But I, whose virtues are the definitions
    Of the analytic mind, can neither close
    The eye of the mind nor keep my tongue from speech.””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “There are those who would keep us slipping back into the darkness of division, into the snake pit of racial hatred, of racial antagonism and of support for symbols of the struggle to keep African-Americans in bondage.”
    —Carol Moseley-Braun (b. 1947)
