Black Brook Village

Famous quotes containing the words black, brook and/or village:

    ... white people, like black ones, are victims of a racist society. They are products of their time and place.
    Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)

    A brook that was the water of the house,
    Cold as a spring as yet so near its source,
    Too lofty and original to rage.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    When a village ceases to be a community, it becomes oppressive in its narrow conformity. So one becomes an individual and migrates to the city. There, finding others likeminded, one re- establishes a village community. Nowadays only New Yorkers are yokels.
    Paul Goodman (1911–1972)
