Famous quotes containing the words white and/or race:
“The white stretch
of its white beach,
curved as the moon crescent
or ivory when some fine hand
chisels it.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“Like a tale of little meaning though the words are strong;
Chanted from an ill-used race of men that cleave the soil,
Sow the seed, and reap the harvest with enduring toil,
Storing yearly little dues of wheat, and wine and oil;
Till they perish and they suffer—some, ‘tis
whispered—down in hell”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
