Famous quotes containing the words mexico, city and/or races:

    I think New Mexico was the greatest experience from the outside world that I have ever had.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    When the city gate catches fire, it’s the fish in the moat who suffer.
    Chinese proverb.

    Behind every individual closes organization; before him opens liberty,—the Better, the Best. The first and worse races are dead. The second and imperfect races are dying out, or remain for the maturing of the higher. In the latest race, in man, every generosity, every new perception, the love and praise he extorts from his fellows, are certificates of advance out of fate into freedom.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
