Famous quotes containing the words black and/or white:

“How strange a vehicle it is, coming down unchanged from times of old romance, and so characteristically black, the way no other thing is black except a coffin—a vehicle evoking lawless adventures in the plashing stillness of night, and still more strongly evoking death itself, the bier, the dark obsequies, the last silent journey!”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

“One revelation has been made to the Indian, another to the white man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
