Famous quotes containing the words black and/or history:

    “I put on
    the body-armor of black rubber
    the absurd flippers
    the grave and awkward mask.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    “Considered in its entirety, psychoanalysis won’t do. It’s an end product, moreover, like a dinosaur or a zeppelin; no better theory can ever be erected on its ruins, which will remain for ever one of the saddest and strangest of all landmarks in the history of twentieth-century thought.”
    —Peter B. Medawar (1915–1987)
