Son Baldwin

Famous quotes containing the words son and/or baldwin:

    It’s so easy during those first few months to think that the problems will never end. You feel as if your son will never sleep through the night, will always spit up food after eating, and will never learn to smile—even though you don’t know any adults or even older children who still act this way.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    The establishment of democracy on the American continent was scarcely as radical a break with the past as was the necessity, which Americans faced, of broadening this concept to include black men.
    —James Baldwin (1924–1987)
