Famous quotes containing the words common, cell and/or lines:

    The last Night that She lived

    Antonio Gramsci (1891–1937)

    I am so tired of taking to others
    translating my life for the deaf, the blind,
    the “I really want to know what your life is like without giving up any of my privileges
    to live it” white women
    the “I want to live my white life with Third World women’s style and keep my skin
    class privileges” dykes
