Famous quotes containing the words marginal and/or teeth:
“Of course Im a black writer.... Im not just a black writer, but categories like black writer, woman writer and Latin American writer arent marginal anymore. We have to acknowledge that the thing we call literature is more pluralistic now, just as society ought to be. The melting pot never worked. We ought to be able to accept on equal terms everybody from the Hassidim to Walter Lippmann, from the Rastafarians to Ralph Bunche.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
“Id like to live another hundred years yetand I dont know but I will, too. My teeth are good, and if I can get enough to eat, I dont know why I should die. Theres no use in dyingyou aint good for anything after you are dead.”
—Sylvia Dubois (1788?1889)
