Race Quotes

My favourite time of day at race weekend is on a Saturday night when everyone’s gone
Claire Williams -
Race is the great taboo in our society. We are afraid to talk about it. White folks fear their unspoken views will be deemed racist. People of color are filled with sorrow and rage at unrighted wrongs. Drowning in silence, we are brothers and sisters drowning each other. Once we decide to transform ourselves from fearful caterpillars into courageous butterflies, we will be able to bridge the racial gulf and move forward together towards a bright and colorful future.

I just want to say to fans in every corner of the earth, every nationality, every race, every language: I love you from the bottom of my heart.

But please know a lot of conspiracy is going on as we speak.
Michael Jackson -
One of the things we find when we talk to people that attend these congregations, they all have social cost to it. People want to know why they're doing that. Sometimes they're questions about selling out on their race or "Are we not good enough that you have to go to this kind of congregation and not ours?" So there are costs to it, and I think they're a little bit higher in the South because of its history.
Michael Emerson -

It's a classic error in American discourse: the conflation of race with culture.

There are important differences that mean we appreciate each other, not tolerate each other. Race creates this idea that there's this massive difference. So when you use race as a means to explore politics, it's a very interesting way of looking at difference, yet similarities.

The race and the nation has its generous enthusiasms and its bursts of admiration for the noble, but its real admiration it gives to those whom it best understands. Fortunately the leaders of the race have more of generosity and fine admiration than have the mass they lead. Left to itself, the mass of the race limits its hero-worship to the lesser, unworthy race of heroes.

Baseball is a spirited race of man against man, reflex against reflex. A game of inches. Every skill is measured. Every heroic, every failing is seen and cheered, or booed. And then becomes a statistic.
Ernie Harwell -

Michael Emerson -
To deny, to believe, and to doubt well, are to a man what the race is to a horse.
Blaise Pascal -
I am going to make sure that I enjoy it, won’t take it for granted and make the most of it.

George Russell
