Considered White

Famous quotes containing the words considered and/or white:

    “The ambivalence of writing is such that it can be considered both an act and an interpretive process that follows after an act with which it cannot coincide. As such, it both affirms and denies its own nature.”
    —Paul De Man (1919–1983)

    “Once in a while, God sends a good white person my way, even to this day. I think it’s God’s way of keeping me from becoming too mean. And when he sends a nice one to me, then I have to eat crow. And honey, crow is a tough old bird to eat, let me tell you.”
    —Annie Elizabeth Delany (b. 1891)
