Famous quotes containing the word race:

    “You sang far better than you knew; the songs
    That for your listeners’ hungry hearts sufficed
    Still live,—but more than this to you belongs:
    You sang a race from wood and stone to Christ.”
    —James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938)

    “A race horse needs only a touch of the whip; a clever person needs only a hint.”
    —Chinese proverb.

    “I don’t like the idea of the black race being diluted out of existence. I like the idea of all of us being here.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
