Career Total

Famous quotes containing the words career and/or total:

    A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    For youth is a frail thing, not unafraid.
    Firstly inclined to take what it is told.
    Firstly inclined to lean. Greedy to give
    Faith tidy and total. To a total God.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
