White Eye Patch

Famous quotes containing the words white, eye and/or patch:

    Assumptions of male superiority are as widespread and deep rooted and every bit as crippling to the woman as the assumptions of white supremacy are to the Negro.... this is no more a man’s world than it is a white world.

    Mine eye hath play’d the painter, and hath steel’d
    Thy beauty’s form in table of my heart:
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I sing a hero’s head, large eye
    And bearded bronze, but not a man,

    Although I patch him as I can
    And reach through him almost to man.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
