Transatlantic Slave Trade

Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or trade:

    ... where there is one slave there are always two—he who wears the chain and he who rivets it.
    Jeanne De Hericourt (1809–1875)

    A nose, kind sir! Sure, Mother Nature,
    With all her freaks, ne’er formed this feature.
    If such were mine, I’d try and trade it,
    And swear the gods had never made it.
    Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
