Famous quotes containing the words native, american and/or cultural:

    When my outward action doth demonstrate
    The native act and figure of my heart
    In compliment extern, ‘tis not long after

    For daws to peck at: I am not what I am.

    Unfortunately there is still a cultural stereotype that it’s all right for girls to be affectionate but that once boys reach six or seven, they no longer need so much hugging and kissing.

    Stephanie Martson (20th century)
