Famous quotes containing the words mere and/or oblivion:
“If Americans could understand what a painful, searing experience it is when Negro children first begin to realize that the mere color of their skin is to be the source of a lifelong discrimination, it might do more to end our cruelty toward the Negro than all the preaching on justice and equality.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
“The others died, the luck of it blurting through them.
I could not, I was a silly broken umbrella
and oblivion would not kiss me. For three days it
was thus.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
