When Negroes are average, they fail, unless they are very, very lucky. Now, if you’re average and white, honey, you can go far. Just look at Dan Quayle. If that boy was colored he’d be washing dishes somewhere (Annie Elizabeth Delany Quotes)
I am a colored woman or a Negro woman. Either one is OK. People dislike those words now. Today these use this term African American. It wouldn’t occur to me to use that. I prefer to think of myself as an American, that’s all! (Annie Elizabeth Delany Quotes)

Turning one hundred was the worst birthday of my life. I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. Turning 101 was not so bad. Once you’re past that century mark, it’s just not as shocking (Annie Elizabeth Delany Quotes)
Ain’t nobody going to censor me, no, sir! I’m a hundred and one years old, and at my age, honey, I can say what I want! (Annie Elizabeth Delany Quotes)
