Edmond Rostand
“I must be loved for myself, just that, or not at all…“ Christian to Cyrano”
Rostand Edmond 1868-1918, Cyrano de Bergerac; comédie héroïque en cinq actes. Edited with introd. and notes by Oscar Kuhns

James W. Loewen
“The first requirement of a slave society is secure borders. We do not like to think of the United States as a police state, a nation like East Germany that people had to escape from, but the slaveholding states were just that. Indeed, after the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which made it easy for whites to kidnap and sell free blacks into slavery, thousands of free African Americans realized they could not be safe even in Northern states and fled to Canada, Mexico, and Haiti.”
James W. Loewen, Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong

Kirsten Fullmer
“Mildred adjusted the papers and scribbled some more. When she was finished, she took off her glasses, leaving them to swing from the chain around her neck. She gave the women around the table a pointed look. “Now think hard, ladies, can you come up with anything else?”
Kirsten Fullmer

Ernest J. Gaines
“I didn’t want to show it. Because if what he was saying was true, there wasn’t a thing I could do about it. Marshall was too big. If it was just Bonbon who wanted to hurt Marcus, you might be able to prevent that. Bonbon was nothing but a poor white man, and sometimes you could go to the rich white man for help. But where did you go when it was the rich white man? You couldn’t even go to the law, because he was the law. He was police, he was judge, he was jury.”
Ernest J. Gaines, Of Love and Dust
