Famous quotes containing the word baldwin:

    When Americans look out on the world, they see nothing but dark and menacing strangers who appear to have no sense of rhythm at all, nor any respect or affection for white people; and white Americans really do not know what to make of all this, except to increase the defense budget.
    —James Baldwin (1924–1987)

    My Love in me and I in him,
    Conjoined by love, will till abide
    Among the faithful lilies
    Till day do break, and truth do dim
    All shadows dark and cause them slide,
    According as his will is.
    —William Baldwin (fl. 1547–1549)

    Experience is a private, and a very largely speechless affair.
