Early Lead

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or lead:

“It was common practice for me to take my children with me whenever I went shopping, out for a walk in a white neighborhood, or just felt like going about in a white world. The reason was simple enough: if a black man is alone or with other black men, he is a threat to whites. But if he is with children, then he is harmless, adorable.”
—Gerald Early (20th century)

“I know what Germans are. They are a funny people. They are always choosing someone to lead them in a direction which they do not want to go.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
