Walker Gordon

Famous quotes containing the words walker and/or gordon:

    To me, the black black woman is our essential mother—the blacker she is the more us she is—and to see the hatred that is turned on her is enough to make me despair, almost entirely, of our future as a people.
    —Alice Walker (b. 1944)

    And hiving wisdom with each studious year,
    In meditation dwelt, with learning wrought,
    And shaped his weapon with an edge severe,
    Sapping a solemn creed with solemn sneer.
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
