Famous quotes containing the words white, stone and/or marked:
“It was common practice for me to take my children with me whenever I went shopping, out for a walk in a white neighborhood, or just felt like going about in a white world. The reason was simple enough: if a black man is alone or with other black men, he is a threat to whites. But if he is with children, then he is harmless, adorable.”
—Gerald Early (20th century)
“Ye could not know where lies a thing so fair,
No stone is there to show, no tongue to say,
What was; no dirge, except the hollow seas,
Mourns oer the beauty of the Cyclades.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
“Yet marked I where the bolt of Cupid fell:
It fell upon a little western flower,
Before, milk-white; now purple with loves wound:
And maidens call it love-in-idleness.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
