Smaller Islands

Famous quotes containing the words smaller and/or islands:

    Smallness in a great man seems smaller by its disproportion with all the rest.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color-line—the relation of the darker to the lighter races of men in Asia and Africa, in America and the islands of the sea. It was a phase of this problem that caused the Civil War.
    —W.E.B. (William Edward Burghardt)
