Red Frame

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or frame:

    He gets red roses in different places,
    the head, that time he was as sleepy as a river,
    the back, that time he was a broken scarecrow,
    the arm like a diamond had bitten it,
    the leg, twisted like a licorice stick....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The warped, distorted frame we have put around every Negro child from birth is around every white child also. Each is on a different side of the frame but each is pinioned there. And ... what cruelly shapes and cripples the personality of one is as cruelly shaping and crippling the personality of the other.
    Lillian Smith (1897–1966)
