White South

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or south:

“Judge Ginsburg’s selection should be a model—chosen on merit and not ideology, despite some naysaying, with little advance publicity. Her treatment could begin to overturn a terrible precedent: that is, that the most terrifying sentence among the accomplished in America has become, “Honey—the White House is on the phone.””
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

“These South savannahs may yet prove battle-fields.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
