Black Sword

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or sword:

    I came along at a time when there was a demand to give men greater visibility and opportunity. In white society they were saying, “Women can’t do it.” In black society, they were saying, “Women do too much.” It’s a diabolical situation.
    Yvonne Braithwaite Burke (b. 1932)

    The self-styled intellectual who is impotent with pen and ink hungers to write history with sword and blood.
