Famous quotes containing the words works, owned and/or louvre:
“Most young black females learn to be suspicious and critical of feminist thinking long before they have any clear understanding of its theory and politics.... Without rigorously engaging feminist thought, they insist that racial separatism works best. This attitude is dangerous. It not only erases the reality of common female experience as a basis for academic study; it also constructs a framework in which differences cannot be examined comparatively.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
“But not gold in commercial quantities,
Just enough gold to make the engagement rings
And marriage rings of those who owned the farm.
What gold more innocent could one have asked for?”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“He is what he hears and sees and if,
Without pathos, he feels what he hears
And sees, being nothing otherwise, he has not
To go to the Louvre to behold himself.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
