Matching Quote
"I thought that God put me on the earth without asking if I wanted to be a woman or what color I would prefer to be. I could not help it if he gave me skin so black it was blue, a face not exactly dripping with beauty. But I was content, and maybe if I had to choose right now, in this precise moment, I would choose this
bluish
skin and this face without dripping beauty."
-Simone Schwarz-Bart
