Colored Stones Include

Famous quotes containing the words colored, stones and/or include:

    Both of us felt more anxiety about the South—about the colored people especially—than about anything else sinister in the result. My hope of a sound currency will somehow be realized; civil service reform will be delayed; but the great injury is in the South. There the Amendments will be nullified, disorder will continue, prosperity to both whites and colored people will be pushed off for years.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    our philosophy
    Which stops, as cold and bare
    As headless hair,
    As lifeless as your bones,
    Obtuse as meadow stones ...
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Unless we include a job as part of every citizen’s right to autonomy and personal fulfillment, women will continue to be vulnerable to someone else’s idea of what “need” is.
    Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)
