Famous quotes containing the words leading and/or edges:
“We have got to stop the nervous Nellies and the Toms from going to the Man’s place. I don’t believe in killing, but a good whipping behind the bushes wouldn’t hurt them.... These bourgeoisie Negroes aren’t helping. It’s the ghetto Negroes who are leading the way.”
—Fannie Lou Hamer (1917–1977)
“People stay
Next to the edges of fields, hoping that out of nothing
Something will come, and it does, but what?”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
