Famous quotes containing the words black and/or white:

    “A new disease? I know not, new or old,
    But it may well be called poor mortals’ plague:
    For, like a pestilence, it doth infect
    The houses of the brain ...
    Till not a thought, or motion, in the mind,
    Be free from the black poison of suspect.”
    —Ben Jonson (c. 1572–1637)

    “And to your more bewitching, see the proud,
    Plump bed bear up, and swelling like a cloud,
    Tempting the two too modest; can
    Ye see it brustle like a swan,
    And you be cold
    To meet it when it woos and seems to fold
    The arms to hug you? Throw, throw
    Yourselves into the mighty overflow
    Of that white pride, and drown
    The night with you in floods of down.”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
