Pair Bonds

Famous quotes containing the words pair and/or bonds:

    “We saw a pair of moose-horns on the shore, and I asked Joe if a moose had shed them; but he said there was a head attached to them, and I knew that they did not shed their heads more than once in their lives.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “We black women must forgive black men for not protecting us against slavery, racism, white men, our confusion, their doubts. And black men must forgive black women for our own sometimes dubious choices, divided loyalties, and lack of belief in their possibilities. Only when our sons and our daughters know that forgiveness is real, existent, and that those who love them practice it, can they form bonds as men and women that really can save and change our community.”
    —Marita Golden, educator, author. Saving Our Sons, p. 188, Doubleday (1995)
