White Persons Born

Famous quotes containing the words white, persons and/or born:

    It is snowing and death bugs me
    as stubborn as insomnia.
    The fierce bubbles of chalk,
    the little white lesions
    settle on the street outside.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Great allowances ought to be made for the petulance of persons laboring under ill-health.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    The boy stood on the burning deck,
    Whence all but he had fled;
    The flame that lit the battle’s wreck,
    Shone round him o’er the dead.

    Yet beautiful and bright he stood,
    As born to rule the storm;
    A creature of heroic blood,
    A proud though childlike form.
    Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)
