Cellar Roots

Famous quotes containing the words cellar and/or roots:

    Look, we’re all the same; a man is a fourteen-room house—in the bedroom he’s asleep with his intelligent wife, in the living-room he’s rolling around with some bareass girl, in the library he’s paying his taxes, in the yard he’s raising tomatoes, and in the cellar he’s making a bomb to blow it all up.
    Arthur Miller (b. 1915)

    You know, honey, us colored folks is branches without roots and that makes things come round in queer ways.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
