White Breast

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or breast:

    No other group in America has so had their identity socialized out of existence as have black women.... When black people are talked about the focus tends to be on black men; and when women are talked about the focus tends to be on white women.
    bell hooks (b. c. 1955)

    On the grey rock of Cashel I suddenly saw
    A Sphinx with woman breast and lion paw,
    A Buddha, hand at rest,
    Hand lifted up that blest;
    And right between these two a girl at play
    That, it may be, had danced her life away....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
