True Black

Famous quotes containing the words true and/or black:

    My dream thou brok’st not, but continued’st it.
    Thou art so true that thoughts of thee suffice
    To make dreams truths and fables histories;
    Enter these arms, for since thou thought’st it best
    Not to dream all my dream, let’s act the rest.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    Quadroon mermaids, Afro angels, black saints
    balanced upon the switchblades of that air
    and sang.
    Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)
