Famous quotes containing the word race:

    “He seemed to be of no particular race, or, in certain lights, to belong to some race that nobody else belonged to.”
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)

    “‘Twas mercy brought me from my Pagan land,
    Taught my benighted soul to understand
    That there’s a God, that there’s a Saviour too:
    Once I redemption neither sought nor knew.
    Some view our sable race with scornful eye,
    “Their color is a diabolic die.”
    Remember, Christians, Negroes, black as Cain,
    May be refin’d, and join th’ angelic train.”
    —Phillis Wheatley (c. 1753–1784)
