Famous quotes containing the words white and/or settlers:
“A good soft pillow for that good white head
Were better than a churlish turf of France.”

“When old settlers say “One has to understand the country,” what they mean is, “You have to get used to our ideas about the native.” They are saying, in effect, “Learn our ideas, or otherwise get out; we don’t want you.””
