Cole Hill State

Famous quotes containing the words cole, hill and/or state:

    These young women have had four years of very special space.... This has been special space. This has been safe space. But when they graduate, they will begin to deal on a daily basis, all day long, month after month, year after year, with the realities that still haunt our nation.
    —Johnnetta Betsch Cole (b. 1936)

    This sanguine coward, this bed-presser, this horse-back-
    breaker, this huge hill of flesh.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Our ancestors were savages. The story of Romulus and Remus being suckled by a wolf is not a meaningless fable. The founders of every state which has risen to eminence have drawn their nourishment and vigor from a similar wild source. It was because the children of the Empire were not suckled by the wolf that they were conquered and displaced by the children of the northern forests who were.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
