Marked White

Famous quotes containing the words marked and/or white:

    If we are marked to die, we are enough
    To do our country loss; and if to live,
    The fewer men, the greater share of honour.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Slavery is no scholar, no improver; it does not love the whistle of the railroad; it does not love the newspaper, the mail-bag, a college, a book or a preacher who has the absurd whim of saying what he thinks; it does not increase the white population; it does not improve the soil; everything goes to decay.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
