Black Caribbean

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or caribbean:

“Thus Winter falls,
A heavy gloom oppressive o’er the world
Through Nature shedding influence malign,
And rouses up the seeds of dark disease.
The soul of man dies in him, loathing life,
And black with more than melancholy views.”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)

“It is a curious thing to be a woman in the Caribbean after you have been a woman in these United States.”
