Creole Quotes

I’m Creole, and I’m down to earth Picture Quote #1

(Brazil:) I’ve never beheld such a paradise. The people are enchanting and--a mercy on this earth of ours--this is the only placewhere there isn’t any race question. Negroes and whites and Indians, three-quarters, oneeighth, the wonderful Mulatto and Creole women, Jews and Christians, all dwell together in a peace that passes describing. The Jewish immigrants are in seventh heaven; all of them have jobs and feel at home Picture Quote #1

My family is part Creole, and were Indian, and were also very, very black. My father was so black, he was blue Picture Quote #1

My father was a dark-skinned brother, but my mother was a very fair-skinned lady. From what I understand, she was Creole; we think her people originally came from New Orleans. She looked almost like a white woman, which meant she could pass - as folks used to say back then. Her hair was jet-black. She was slim and very attractive Picture Quote #1

The definition of gumbo is almost as slippery as that of Creole. Just as gumbo can contain pretty much any kind of meat or seafood, Creole is a vague and inclusive term for native New Orleanians, who may be black or white, depending on whom you’re asking Picture Quote #1

My mother’s mother is Jewish and African, so I guess that would be considered Creole. My mother’s father was Cherokee Indian and something else. My dad’s mother’s Puerto Rican and black, and his father was from Barbados Picture Quote #1

When I was twelve, the biggest name in Rock and Roll was Elvis Presley. I bought an EP, King Creole. I hid it in the basement, but my mother found it Picture Quote #1

When you set a play in the French Quarter in New Orleans, it’s hard not to acknowledge the whole African-American, French, white mixing of races. That’s what the French Quarter is: it’s a Creole community Picture Quote #1
