Famous quotes containing the words secret and/or societies:
“The secret lies, I think, in his intimate knowledge of the people he is addressing be they black or white, and in the forthrightness with which he speaks of those things which hurt and baffle them.... He allows them their self-respect—indeed, he insists on it.”
—James Baldwin (1924–1987)
“In countries where associations are free, secret societies are unknown. In America there are factions, but no conspiracies.”
