Members Led

Famous quotes containing the words members and/or led:

“... no young colored person in the United States today can truthfully offer as an excuse for lack of ambition or aspiration that members of his race have accomplished so little, he is discouraged from attempting anything himself.

—Mary Church Terrell (1863–1954)

“And showed the names whom love of God had blessed,
And, lo! Ben Adhem’s name led all the rest!”
