Famous quotes containing the words eco and/or received:
“Fear prophets ... and those prepared to die for the truth, for as a rule they make many others die with them, often before them, at times instead of them.”
—Umberto Eco (b. 1932)
“I maintain that I have been a Negro three times—a Negro baby, a Negro girl and a Negro woman. Still, if you have received no clear cut impression of what the Negro in America is like, then you are in the same place with me. There is no The Negro here. Our lives are so diversified, internal attitudes so varied, appearances and capabilities so different, that there is no possible classification so catholic that it will cover us all, except My people! My people!”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
