Ghetto Bells

Famous quotes containing the words ghetto and/or bells:

    The Twist was a guided missile, launched from the ghetto into the very heart of suburbia. The Twist succeeded, as politics, religion, and law could never do, in writing in the heart and soul what the Supreme Court could only write on the books.
    Eldridge Cleaver (b. 1935)

    Now Lady Maisry is gone home,
    Made him a winding sheet,
    And at the back of merry Lincoln
    The dead corpse did her meet.

    And all the bells of merry Lincoln,
    Without men’s hands were rung,
    Unknown. Hugh of Lincoln (l. 61–66)
