Cuban Davidoff Line

Famous quotes containing the words cuban and/or line:

    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)

    Gascoigne, Ben Jonson, Greville, Raleigh, Donne,
    Poets who wrote great poems, one by one,
    And spaced by many years, each line an act
    Through which few labor, which no men retract.
    This passion is the scholar’s heritage,
    Yvor Winters (1900–1968)
