Average Order

Famous quotes containing the words average and/or order:

“...you don’t have to be as good as white people, you have to be better or the best. When Negroes are average, they fail, unless they are very, very lucky. Now, if you’re average and white, honey, you can go far. Just look at Dan Quayle. If that boy was colored he’d be washing dishes somewhere.”
—Annie Elizabeth Delany (b. 1891)

“Man needs to know but little more than a lobster in order to catch him in his traps.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
