Famous quotes containing the word white:

    We should always be prepared so as never to err to believe that what I see as white is black, if the hierarchic Church defines it thus.
    Ignatius Of Loyola (1491–1556)

    Every time I embrace a black woman I’m embracing slavery, and when I put my arms around a white woman, well, I’m hugging freedom. The white man forbade me to have the white woman on pain of death.... I will not be free until the day I can have a white woman in my bed.
    Eldridge Cleaver (b. 1935)

    Poverty was an ornament on a learned man like a red ribbon on a white horse.
