White Paintings

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or paintings:

    I am fifty-two years of age. I am a bishop in the Anglican Church, and a few people might be constrained to say that I was reasonably responsible. In the land of my birth I cannot vote, whereas a young person of eighteen can vote. And why? Because he or she possesses that wonderful biological attribute—a white skin.
    Desmond Tutu (b. 1931)

    the great orange bed where we lie
    like two frozen paintings in a field of poppies.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
