East Africa Yearly

Famous quotes containing the words east, africa and/or yearly:

    The East is marvellously interesting for tracing our steps back. But for going forward, it is nothing. All it can hope for is to be fertilised by Europe, so that it can start on a new phase.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    For Africa to me ... is more than a glamorous fact. It is a historical truth. No man can know where he is going unless he knows exactly where he has been and exactly how he arrived at his present place.
    Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    What is last year’s snow to me,
    Last year’s anything? The tree
    Budding yearly must forget
    How its past arose or set—
    Countee Cullen (1903–1946)
