Light Colored

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or colored:

    Not yet the thirtieth year, the thirtieth
    Station where time reverses his light heels
    To run both ways, and makes of forward back;
    Whose long co-ordinates are birth and death....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    See, I’m so light, it don’t seem right
    to go to the colored rest room;
    my daughter’s brown, and folks frown on that in Texas,
    I just don’t know how to go to the bathroom in the free world!
    Ray Durem (1915–1963)
