“Johnson did not answer ...; but talking for victory and determined to be master of the field, he had recourse to the device which Goldsmith imputed to him in the witty words of one of Cibbers comedies. There is no arguing with Johnson; for when his pistol misses fire, he knocks you down with the butt end of it.”
—Samuel Johnson (17091784)
“... the black girls didnt get these pills because their black ministers were up on the pulpit saying that birth control pills were black genocide. What Im saying is that black men have exploited black women.... They didnt want them to have any choice about their reproductive health. And if you cant control your reproduction, you cant control your life.”
—Joycelyn Elders (b. 1933)
