Alexis De Tocqueville Quotes
The First Who Attracts The Eye, The First In Enlightenment, In Power And In Happiness, Is The White Man, The European, Man Par Excellence; Below Him Appear The Negro And The Indian. These Two Unfortunate Races Have Neither Birth, Nor Face, Nor Language, Nor Mores In Common; Only Their Misfortunes Look Alike. Both Occupy An Equally Inferior Position In The Country That They Inhabit; Both Experience The Effects Of Tyranny; And If Their Miseries Are Different, They Can Accuse The Same Author For Them.
