Famous quotes containing the word race:

    “Spring, of all seasons most gratuitous,
    Is fold of untaught flower, is race of water,
    Is earth’s most multiple, excited daughter;
    And those she has least use for see her best,
    Their paths grown craven and circuitous,
    Their visions mountain-clear, their needs immodest.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “A race cannot be purified from without.”
    —Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)

    “Let me arrest thy thoughts; wonder with me,
    Why plowing, building, ruling and the rest,
    Or most of those arts, whence our lives are blest,
    By cursed Cain’s race invented be,
    And blest Seth vexed us with Astronomie.”
    —John Donne (c. 1572–1631)
