Light Colored Concrete

Famous quotes containing the words light, colored and/or concrete:

    If you wish to grow thinner, diminish your dinner,
    And take to light claret instead of pale ale;
    Look down with an utter contempt upon butter,
    And never touch bread till it’s toasted—or stale
    —H.S. (Henry Sambrooke)

    ... two great areas of deafness existed in the South: White Southerners had no ears to hear that which threatened their Dream. And colored Southerners had none to hear that which could reduce their anger.
    Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 1, ch. 16 (1962)

    To step over the low wall that divides
    Road from concrete walk above the shore
    Brings sharply back something known long before
    The miniature gaiety of seasides.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
