Famous quotes containing the words married and/or white:
“Are we not also married to conscience which we would love to get rid of often enough since it is more bothersome than a man or a woman ever could become?”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“...you don’t have to be as good as white people, you have to be better or the best. When Negroes are average, they fail, unless they are very, very lucky. Now, if you’re average and white, honey, you can go far. Just look at Dan Quayle. If that boy was colored he’d be washing dishes somewhere.”
—Annie Elizabeth Delany (b. 1891)
