Famous quotes containing the words south and/or american:

    I don’t have any doubts that there will be a place for progressive white people in this country in the future. I think the paranoia common among white people is very unfounded. I have always organized my life so that I could focus on political work. That’s all I want to do, and that’s all that makes me happy.
    Hettie V., South African white anti-apartheid activist and feminist. As quoted in Lives of Courage, ch. 21, by Diana E. H. Russell (1989)

    In every American there is an air of incorrigible innocence, which seems to conceal a diabolical cunning.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
