Race Alliance

Famous quotes containing the words race and/or alliance:

    When at last in a race a new principle appears, an idea—that conserves it; ideas only save races.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Ah! how much a mother learns from her child! The constant protection of a helpless being forces us to so strict an alliance with virtue, that a woman never shows to full advantage except as a mother. Then alone can her character expand in the fulfillment of all life’s duties and the enjoyment of all its pleasures.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)
