Famous quotes containing the words black and/or camelot:

“Swing low swing low sweet sweet chariot.
Nothing but a plain black boy.”

“Ask every person if he’s heard the story,
And tell it strong and clear if he has not,
That once there was a fleeting wisp of glory
Called Camelot ...
Don’t let it be forgot
That once there was a spot
For one brief shining moment that was known
As Camelot.”
—Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
