Famous quotes containing the words window and/or washing:
“On the day of breasts and small hips

rain coming on like a minister,
we coupled, so sane and insane.”

“...you dont have to be as good as white people, you have to be better or the best. When Negroes are average, they fail, unless they are very, very lucky. Now, if youre average and white, honey, you can go far. Just look at Dan Quayle. If that boy was colored hed be washing dishes somewhere.”
—Annie Elizabeth Delany (b. 1891)
