Black Face

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or face:

    Light thickens, and the crow
    Makes wing to th’ rooky wood.
    Good things of day begin to droop and drowse,
    Whiles night’s black agents to their preys do rouse.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    ... the selfishness that is bred of great success is our shame. We have subdued the wilderness and made it ours. We have conquered the earth and the richness thereof. We have indelibly stamped upon its face the seal of our dominating will. Now, unlike Alexander sighing for more worlds to conquer, we should address ourselves to adding beauty to that glory and grandeur.
    Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
