Cuban Brown

Famous quotes containing the words cuban and/or brown:

    Because a person is born the subject of a given state, you deny the sovereignty of the people? How about the child of Cuban slaves who is born a slave, is that an argument for slavery? The one is a fact as well as the other. Why then, if you use legal arguments in the one case, you don’t in the other?
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    I am as content to die for God’s eternal truth on the scaffold as in any other way.
    —John Brown (1800–1859)
