Black Africa

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or africa:

    “We lay long in the immense tide
    Of shade and shadowy desire
    And saw the dusk assail the wall,
    The black surge, mounting, crash the stone!
    Companion of this lust, we fall,
    I said lest we should die alone.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    ““I’ll love you dear, I’ll love you
    Till China and Africa meet,
    And the river jumps over the mountain
    And the salmon sing in the street.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
