Dark Alliance

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or alliance:

    “A young man in the dark am I
    But a wild old man in the light
    That can make a cat laugh, or
    Can touch by mother wit
    Things hid in their marrow bones
    From time long passed away....”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Racism as a form of skin worship, and as a sickness and a pathological anxiety for America, is so great, until the poor whites—rather than fighting for jobs or education—fight to remain pink and fight to remain white. And therefore they cannot see an alliance with people that they feel to be inherently inferior.
    Jesse Jackson (b. 1941)
