“Time the healer (Time the killer) flies faster here in Rome than anywhere else in the world, I believe ... here in Rome there are or seem to be strange differences in the value of things. For instance, the pound weight, instead of being sixteen ounces, is only twelve; the foot measure, instead of being twelve inches, is only nine; and I think, in some way, this must apply to time as well, so that the hour, instead of being sixty minutes long, is only forty-five!” ThinkingWorldWayBelieveWellsLongSeemsTimeValuesI BelieveHoursDifferencesFiveFeetMinutesStrangeWeightNineInstanceFasterFortyPoundsRomeKillersTwelveInchesSixtySixteenHealerSixty Minutes Author:Charlotte Saunders Cushman
“Race is a lie built on a lie. The first lie is that people are different, somehow skin color or hair texture is more significant than eye color, or the shape of one's feet.

That the lighter you are, the straighter your hair, the better you are.” PeopleFirstsDifferentEyeLyingDifferencesRaceFeetColorHairShapesBuiltSkinsSignificantBrownHierarchyTextureLightersShowing UpSkin ColorEye Color Author:Benjamin Jealous
