Black Corinth

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or corinth:

    America today is capable of terrific intolerance about smoking, or toxic waste that threatens trout. But only a deeply confused society is more concerned about protecting lungs than minds, trout than black women.
    Garry Wills (b. 1934)

    War wreaked on you his hideous ravishment;
    We, we alone, Nereids inviolate,
    Remain to weep, with the sea-birds to chant:
    Corinth is lost, Corinth is desolate.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
