He sent it from the town,
Saying no more he loved me,
For that I was so brown.”
—Unknown. The Brown Girl (l. 9–12)
“Of course I’m a black writer.... I’m not just a black writer, but categories like black writer, woman writer and Latin American writer aren’t marginal anymore. We have to acknowledge that the thing we call “literature” is more pluralistic now, just as society ought to be. The melting pot never worked. We ought to be able to accept on equal terms everybody from the Hassidim to Walter Lippmann, from the Rastafarians to Ralph Bunche.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
“He could not see a belt without hitting below it.”
—Margot Asquith (1864–1945)
“O, what a world of vile ill-favoured faults,
Looks handsome in three hundred pounds a year!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“While the Governor, and the Mayor, and countless officers of the Commonwealth are at large, the champions of liberty are imprisoned.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
