Famous quotes containing the words link and/or access:
“Because this age and the next age
Engender in the ditch,
No man can know a happy man
From any passing wretch,

No man knows which is which....”

“Oh, the holiness of always being the injured party. The historically oppressed can find not only sanctity but safety in the state of victimization. When access to a better life has been denied often enough, and successfully enough, one can use the rejection as an excuse to cease all efforts. After all, one reckons, “they” don’t want me, “they” accept their own mediocrity and refuse my best, “they” don’t deserve me.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
