White Race

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or race:

    In marble halls as white as milk,
    Lined with a skin as soft as silk,
    Within a fountain crystal-clear,
    A golden apple doth appear.
    No doors there are to this stronghold,
    Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.
    Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. In marble walls as white as milk (Riddle: An Egg)

    By the by, if the English race had done nothing else, yet if they left the world the notion of a gentleman, they would have done a great service to mankind.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
