Stereotype threat, then, is one way our national history seeps into our daily lives. That history leaves us with stereotypes about groups in our society that can be used to judge us as individuals when we're in situations where those stereotypes apply - in the seat next to a black person on an airplane or interacting with minority students, for example. The white person in that situation will not want to be seen in terms of the stereotype of whites as racially insensitive. And the black person, for his or her part, will not want to be seen in terms of the stereotypes about blacks as aggressive, or as too easily seeing prejudice, and so on. Fighting off these possible perceptions on a long airline flight - or more famously, perhaps, in a school cafeteria - could be more than either party wants to take on. They just want to have lunch or get to Cleveland. Avoidance becomes the simplest solution. ~ Claude M. Steele
Cleveland quotes by Claude M. Steele
When your soul tells you that it's ready to heal, you listen. ~ Eddie Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Eddie Cleveland
I sometimes feel it is to my disadvantage that I have not conducted the Cleveland Orchestra or the Boston or Chicago symphonies, but then I have had to sacrifice something in order to have enough time with my orchestras. ~ Zubin Mehta
Cleveland quotes by Zubin Mehta
Every station I was at, I never said goodbye - when I was in Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, Oakland, and L.A. I don't know why. ~ Casey Kasem
Cleveland quotes by Casey Kasem
I'm only waiting for my wife to grow up. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
If I ever saw myself saying I'm excited going to Cleveland, I'd punch myself in the face, because I'm lying. ~ Ichiro Suzuki
Cleveland quotes by Ichiro Suzuki
What y'all ladies got to share? Hmmm, what you bitches got?"

Aunt Georgia sighed and squinted at the boy. She said, "The Lord loves a cheerful giver, but I'm just not in the mood."

The thug moved his hand from his crotch to his scalp, still scratching. "What in the hell's that supposed to mean?" Mrs. Cleveland raised and pumped her walking stick, which, it turned out, was a double-barreled shotgun.

"It means take one more step," she said, "and I'll blast you to hell, you ignorant-ass bastard. ~ Jabari Asim
Cleveland quotes by Jabari Asim
My Cleveland years were both scientifically and personally most rewarding. My wife Judy was able to rejoin me in our research and my research group grew rapidly. ~ George Andrew Olah
Cleveland quotes by George Andrew Olah
It's nice to come into a town and be referred to as the manager of the Cleveland Indians instead of as the first black manager. ~ Frank Robinson
Cleveland quotes by Frank Robinson
Though the people support the government; the government should not support the people. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
I know that I am honest and sincere in my desire to do well; but the question is whether I know enough to accomplish what I desire. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
Being president means leaving one's name in the history book of which few men are authors. It is my fortune to be blessed with a proud name, one that parents will employ for generations to instill the values of honesty, independence, and above all, courage in their sons. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
Mark Twain, the thinking man's Colonel Sanders, reputedly said, America is New York, New Orleans, and San Francisco. Everywhere else is Cleveland. ~ Russell Brand
Cleveland quotes by Russell Brand
Patriotism is no substitute for a sound currency. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
Devo and The Cramps didn't get big until they went to New York City. Chrissie Hynde didn't get big until she moved to London. When I was growing up, there wasn't even a place to play - just one little bar. If we wanted to have a gig, then we had to drive 45 minutes up to Cleveland. ~ Dan Auerbach
Cleveland quotes by Dan Auerbach
Delirium takes over Oakland Scott Strazzante / The Chronicle Right: Stephen Curry's wife, Ayesha, and limelight-grabbing daughter, Riley, wait for Game 6 to start at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland. ~ Anonymous
Cleveland quotes by Anonymous
I quit my day job the day my daughter was born. I remember flying to Cleveland and hitting a thunderstorm, which caused the plane to lose pressure, and the oxygen masks fell from the ceiling. We felt the plane dropping; the pilot was taking it down to regain cabin pressure. My heart was in my stomach. I found out after landing that her mom was in labor. I did the show and came back to New York. By the time I walked into the hospital, my daughter was being born. She was waiting for me. She's a sweet daddy's girl. She's premed. She has her own pie company. She works for Habitat for Humanity. ~ J. B. Smoove
Cleveland quotes by J. B. Smoove
Cold liquid splashing across his face brought Kevin Temple back to himself. He'd been on the road all night, a dedicated run from Indiana hauling a load of fresh vegetables. Fifteen minutes out of the depot in Cleveland, and he had that stale feel, too much coffee washing down too much beef jerky. What he'd really been craving was a double cheeseburger, but while it would surprise no one to see a trucker gone flabby around ~ Marcus Sakey
Cleveland quotes by Marcus Sakey
I was recently providing music at a conference where one of the speakers, a noted professor of theology, remarked that we are in the "Experiential Age" of the Christian faith, an age that is defined by a professed personal relationship with Christ. Then she threw up her hands and said: "What does that mean? ~ Ashley Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Ashley Cleveland
The love-making of the bluebird is as beautiful as the bird itself, and normally as gentle, unless interrupted by some jealous rival who would steal his bride; then gentleness gives place to active combat. The male usually arrives a few days ahead of the female, selects what he considers to be a suitable summer home, and carols his sweetest, most seductive notes day after day until she appears in answer to his call. ~ Arthur Cleveland Bent
Cleveland quotes by Arthur Cleveland Bent
Cats have enormous patience with the limitations of the human mind. They realize ... that we have an infuriating inability to understand, let alone follow, even the simplest and most explicit of directions. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
The National Park Service shot a mule in the face. He survived but had trouble swallowing and often food came out of his nose. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
At times like the present, when the evils of unsound finance threaten us, the speculator may anticipate a harvest gathered from the misfortune of others, the capitalist may protect himself by hoarding or may even find profit in the fluctuations of values; but the wage earner - the first to be injured by a depreciated currency and the last to receive the benefit of its correction - is practically defenseless. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
This just in: Beverly Hills 90210, Cleveland Browns 3. ~ Colin Mochrie
Cleveland quotes by Colin Mochrie
The Cleveland Clinic Foundation funded a study in which one group of healthy volunteers spent fifteen minutes a day practicing "finger abductions," which are basically like a biceps curl but with one finger. ~ Shawn Achor
Cleveland quotes by Shawn Achor
Vic Wertz once hit a ball rather famously that was later described as such: 'It would have been a home run in any other park - including Yellowstone.' Instead, he's remembered as the guy who got robbed by Willie Mays' spectacular catch during the 1954 World Series between the Indians and the Giants, a play that remains one of the game's all-time greatest defensive efforts. What people often forget about Wertz is that his greatest battle wasn't that one at bat, and that one out never defined his career. He was stricken with polio in 1955, and after 74 games his season was over and his career was hanging in the balance. 'The Catch' by Willie Mays couldn't keep him down, and neither could polio - he came back in 1956, and despite playing in only 136 games he belted 32 home runs with 106 RBIs. ~ Tucker Elliot
Cleveland quotes by Tucker Elliot
William McKinley has left us a priceless gift in the example of a useful and pure life, in his fidelity to public trusts and in his demonstration of the value of kindly virtues that not only ennoble but lead to success. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
The letter from Dan Gilbert, the booing of the Cleveland fans, the jerseys being burned
seeing all that was hard for them. My emotions were more mixed. It was easy to say, 'OK, I don't want to deal with these people ever again.' But then you think about the other side. What if I were a kid who looked up to an athlete, and that athlete made me want to do better in my own life, and then he left? How would I react? I've met with Dan, face-to-face, man-to-man. We've talked it out. Everybody makes mistakes. I've made mistakes as well. Who am I to hold a grudge? ~ LeBron James
Cleveland quotes by LeBron James
I feel like myself and the city of Cleveland are in the same boat. We're made for each other. A few years ago, everybody had bad thoughts on Albert Belle. I feel that has changed. ~ Albert Belle
Cleveland quotes by Albert Belle
There was a flight from Cleveland to New York City with just two people on board. There hasn't been two people on an airplane since the Wright brothers. ~ David Letterman
Cleveland quotes by David Letterman
Well, my dear fellow what did you expect, champagne? ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
Our citizens have the right to protection from the incompetency of public employees who hold their places solely as the reward of partisan service. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
Stand-ups are always good to see on YouTube. There's a guy named Mike Head who lives in Cleveland. He's great. He's an African-American stand-up. ~ Allison Jones
Cleveland quotes by Allison Jones
I am a different kind of celebrity; I don't have the big, giant house, the fancy cars, and all the designer stuff. I am just a girl from Cleveland. ~ Kym Whitley
Cleveland quotes by Kym Whitley
What I really have a sense of dismay about is that there is a center of anything. I think maybe Cleveland can use one. Also possibly Los Angeles needs informed cultural guidance and a place to go get it. But not New York. New York is a center, a world's fair, and a den of thieves, and a house of miracles. ~ Frank Loesser
Cleveland quotes by Frank Loesser
I met Robert Crumb in 1962; he lived in Cleveland for a while. I took a look at his stuff. Crumb was doing stuff beyond what other writers and artists were doing. It was a step beyond Mad. ~ Harvey Pekar
Cleveland quotes by Harvey Pekar
There had been no black people on the household staff of the McCone mansion in Cleveland, no black people in my schools. Not even when I was a communist had I had a black person for a friend. Near ~ Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Cleveland quotes by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
America has only three cities: New York, San Francisco, and New Orleans.
Everywhere else is Cleveland. ~ Tennessee Williams
Cleveland quotes by Tennessee Williams
He who takes the oath today to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States only assumes the solemn obligation which every patriotic citizen ... should share with him ... Your every voter, as surely as your Chief Magistrate, under the same high sanction, though in a different sphere, exercises a public trust. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
My tears will keep no channel, know no laws to guide their streams, but like the waves, their cause, run with disturbance till they swallow me as a description of his misery. ~ John Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by John Cleveland
A drone is often preferred for missions that are too "dull, dirty, or dangerous" for manned aircraft."

PROLOGUE

The graffiti was in Spanish, neon colors highlighting the varicose cracks in the wall. It smelled of urine and pot. The front door was metal with four bolt locks and the windows were frosted glass, embedded with chicken wire. They swung out and up like big fake eye-lashes held up with a notched adjustment bar.

This was a factory building on the near west side of Cleveland in an industrial area on the Cuyahoga River known in Ohio as The Flats.

First a sweatshop garment factory, then a warehouse for imported cheeses then a crack den for teenage potheads. It was now headquarters for Magic Slim, the only pimp in Cleveland with his own film studio and training facility.

Her name was Cosita, she was eighteen looking like fourteen. One of nine children from El Chorillo. a dangerous poverty stricken barrio on the outskirts of Panama City. Her brother, Javier, had been snatched from the streets six months ago, he was thirteen and beautiful.

Cosita had a high school education but earned here degree on the streets of Panama.

Interpol, the world's largest international police organization, had recruited Cosita at seventeen. She was smart, street savvy, motivated and very pretty. Just what Interpol was looking for.

Cosita would become a Drone! ~ Nick Hahn
Cleveland quotes by Nick Hahn
It is unlikely that we will hit a home run anytime soon but if we are unable to get rid of offensive sports team nicknames, we will strike out. ~ Adam Dodek
Cleveland quotes by Adam Dodek
I got to play with some of the best players in the game, from Victor Martinez and Travis Hafner and Grady Sizemore in Cleveland, to here with Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Cole Hamels. Obviously, to Seattle with Ichiro and Felix Hernandez, and then to Texas with Josh Hamilton, Ian Kinsler, Mike Young. It was a great experience. Without being traded I never could have gotten to do any of that.? ~ Cliff Lee
Cleveland quotes by Cliff Lee
I tried out for 'Jeopardy' once, when they came to Cleveland, but I didn't make it. ~ Drew Carey
Cleveland quotes by Drew Carey
It is a condition which confronts us-not a theory. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
The New England conscience does not stop you from doing what you shouldn't-it just stops you from enjoying it. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
I feel obliged to withhold my approval of the plan, as proposed by this bill, to indulge a benevolent and charitable sentiment through the appropriation of public funds for that purpose. I can find no warrant for that kind of appropriation in the Constitution, and I do not believe that the power and duty of the General Government ought to be extended to the relief of individual suffering which is in no manner properly related to the public service or benefit. A prevalent tendency to disregard the limited mission of this power and duty should, I think, be steadfastly resisted, to the end that the lesson should be constantly enforced that though the people support the Government, the Government should not support the people. The friendliness and charity of our countrymen can always be relied upon to relieve their fellow-citizens in misfortune. This has been repeatedly and quite lately demonstrated. Federal aid in such cases encourages the expectation of paternal care on the part of the Government and weakens the sturdiness of our national character, while it prevents the indulgence among our people of that kindly sentiment and conduct which strengthens the bonds of a common brotherhood. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
If you have one good series, you know, it's a blessing. Two good series is unusual. Three is a phenomenon, but right now, I'm working with these wonderful women on 'Hot in Cleveland,' and Valerie Bertinelli, and Wendy Malick and Jane Leeves are like, it's like the buddy-ship we had on 'Golden Girls' and 'Mary Tyler Moore.' ~ Betty White
Cleveland quotes by Betty White
Remember that wasted minute at the start of the day? Hard luck but you'll never find it again. ~ Cleveland W. Gibson
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland W. Gibson
It suddenly dawned on me one day, when I was reading in the paper about a woman wrestler, that being a curmudgeon was the last thing in the world that a man can be that a woman cannot be. Women can be irritating
after all, they are women
but they cannot be curmudgeons. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
physicians, Drs. Bill Castelli, Bill Roberts and Caldwell Esselstyn, Jr., that in their long careers they had never seen a heart disease fatality among their patients who had blood cholesterol levels below 150 mg/dL. Dr. Castelli was the long-time director of the famous Framingham Heart Study of NIH; Dr. Esselstyn was a renowned surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic who did a remarkable study reversing heart disease (chapter five); Dr. Roberts has long been editor of the prestigious medical journal Cardiology. BLOOD CHOLESTEROL AND DIET ~ T. Colin Campbell
Cleveland quotes by T. Colin Campbell
What is love? I have asked this question countless times, and the best answer I can get is that it's a "feeling that we feel when we feel a feeling." That's not much of a definition, is it? Love is hard to define. We feel it, but we can't define it. Sometimes we find it hard to express it in words. ~ Cleveland McLeish
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland McLeish
A truly American sentiment recognizes the dignity of labor and the fact that honor lies in honest toil. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
President Grover Cleveland issued an executive order in 1895 regarding entrance to the Foreign Service. Potential candidates were required to pass two examinations, one written and the other oral, to measure an applicant's knowledge and understanding on a range of subjects deemed necessary for the position. The written examination included essay questions about international law, arithmetic, modern history, resources and commerce of the United States, political and commercial geography, political economy, and American history and institutions. ~ Judith L. Pearson
Cleveland quotes by Judith L. Pearson
Cleveland fans are awesome. ~ LeBron James
Cleveland quotes by LeBron James
We will not forget that Liberty has here made her home; nor shall her chosen altar be neglected. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
I never thought a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland or anywhere else was a good idea. ~ Todd Rundgren
Cleveland quotes by Todd Rundgren
I'm the one who started spreading that particular factoid, about Bendis, Azz and me all being bald Brian's from Cleveland, just to get my name mentioned in the same sentence as two much-better writers, and it's worked like a goddamn charm. Next up, I'm going to grow a big, disgusting beard, just so people will start talking about Alan Moore and me in the same breath. ~ Brian K. Vaughan
Cleveland quotes by Brian K. Vaughan
In every country, they make fun of city. In U.S. you make fun of Cleveland. In Russia, we make fun of Cleveland. ~ Yakov Smirnoff
Cleveland quotes by Yakov Smirnoff
Some years ago a top Ford official was showing the late Walter Reuther through the very automates plant in Cleveland, Ohio and he said to him jokingly, "Walter, you'll have a hard time collecting union dues from these machines." and Walter said, "you are going to have more trouble trying to sell automobiles to them." Both of them let it stop there. There was a logical answer to that ... the owners of the machines could buy automobiles and if you increase the number of owners you increase the number of consumers. ~ Ronald Reagan
Cleveland quotes by Ronald Reagan
You cannot fix what you cannot face. ~ Rev. James Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Rev. James Cleveland
My father was never around. It was almost as if he didn't exist. I would tell my friends he was in Cleveland, on business. Sometimes, every six months or so, he would come by for dinner. ~ Danny Aiello
Cleveland quotes by Danny Aiello
Have you ever heard one civilized person whose opinion you respect, at any time, anywhere, in any civilized country anywhere, say the good new days? ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
I know there is a Supreme Being who rules the affairs of men and whose goodness and mercy have always followed the American people, and I know He will not turn from us now if we humbly and reverently seek His powerful aid. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
I hardly ever belted; I was a soprano and a comedienne and intended on doing mostly soprano legit roles but my first equity show, to my surprise, was Blues in The Night at The Cleveland Playhouse. ~ Erica Schroeder
Cleveland quotes by Erica Schroeder
I intend all my characters must escape from impossible situations; if they are not in trouble, then as a writer, I am. ~ Cleveland W. Gibson
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland W. Gibson
You do not need to belong to the cat for a long time to realize the main thing that cats like to do is to wrap theirselves up in mystery, perhaps only except for a hobby of jumbling up everything that is in order. And if the cat can, and usually so, make a great mystery of where it was when you were searching for it even if a moment ago it was sitting by your side, do not have any doubts: its ancestors had a great pleasure to surround its origin by mystery. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
Neither the discontent of party friends, nor the allurements constantly offered of confirmations of appointees conditions upon the avowal that suspensions have been made on party grounds alone, nor the threat proposed in the resolutions now before the Senate that no confirmations will be made unless the demands of that body are complied with, are sufficient to discourage or deter me from following in the way which I am convinced leads to better government for the people. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
He was a great president in his first term; in his second term, he wasn't the same Grover Cleveland he was to begin with ... Cleveland reestablished the presidency by being not only a chief executive but a leader. ~ Harry S. Truman
Cleveland quotes by Harry S. Truman
The Indians franchise is more than a century old. It's been called the Blues, the Bronchos, and the Naps. It's also been called a lot worse during hard times when the team wasn't winning. ~ Tucker Elliot
Cleveland quotes by Tucker Elliot
When I first started painting, I had an interesting nightmare about Cleveland - I dreamed the houses there were encased in this free-floating cage structure. I guess Cleveland was a confining place for me, even though my parents weren't too conservative. ~ April Gornik
Cleveland quotes by April Gornik
No man has ever yet been hanged for breaking the spirit of a law. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
The bottom line is I've never had anybody bark at me in a mall with malicious intent. Everybody who barks at the kid from Cleveland is to let him know, "I know who you are." It's always a positive thing. ~ Arsenio Hall
Cleveland quotes by Arsenio Hall
The trusts and combinations - the communism of pelf - whose machinations have prevented us from reaching the success we deserved, should not be forgotten nor forgiven. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
I changed my diet completely. You know, I'm from Cleveland, so I've always loved sausage and red meat and all of that stuff, so now I find myself not eating any of that, no red meat, no sausage. It's basically a vegetarian diet with a little bit of fish. I drink quarts of carrot juice, quarts of cranberry juice, endless amounts of water and nothing else. ~ Joe Eszterhas
Cleveland quotes by Joe Eszterhas
The broad rich acres of our agricultural plains have been long preserved by nature to become her untrammeled gift to a people civilized and free, upon which should rest in well-distributed ownership the numerous homes of enlightened, equal and fraternal citizens ... Nor should our vast tracts of land be yielded up to the monopoly of corporations or grasping individuals, as appears to be much the tendency under the existing statute. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
I've always had a sneaking fondness for Martin Van Buren. He wrote his autobiography, you know, and never once mentioned his wife. Now that's what I call a mans man. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
I have tried so hard to do the right. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
A 'good' family, it seems, is one that used to be better. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
If somebody honks a horn in Cleveland, they're saying 'Hi.' It's so rare to be honked at in anger. When we have merging traffic, we just interweave. There's real courtesy. ~ Mary Doria Russell
Cleveland quotes by Mary Doria Russell
For an animal person, an animal-less home is no home at all. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
For every Mother Theresa, there are ten Saddam Husseins. ~ Baron Of Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Baron Of Cleveland
To anyone who has ever been owned by a cat, it will come as no surprise that there are all sorts of things about your cat you will never, as long as you live, forget. Not the least of these is your first sight of him or her. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
Yeah, I think there are a lot of things about Cleveland that I miss. Los Angeles is a funny place to live. ~ Monica Potter
Cleveland quotes by Monica Potter
My boyhood life in New York City has impressed me with the popular ignorance and also with the great need of something better than local lore and weather proverbs. ~ Cleveland Abbe
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Abbe
I grew up wanting only to be an illustrator. I studied art at Laurel School in Cleveland and at Smith College. ~ Natalie Babbitt
Cleveland quotes by Natalie Babbitt
There is much boasting among the young men about their teams as their horse and carts in Cleveland. Most of the Yorkshire men take as much delight in their ox draught as they used to do in their Horse Draught. ~ Nathaniel Smith
Cleveland quotes by Nathaniel Smith
I have considered the pension list of the republic a roll of honor. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
Leaders are problem solvers by talent and temperament, and by choice. For them, the new information environment-undermining old means of control, opening up old closets of secrecy, reducing the relevance of ownership, early arrival, and location-should seem less a litany of problems than an agenda for action. Reaching for a way to describe the entrepreneurial energy of his fabled editor Harold Ross, James Thurber said 'He was always leaning forward, pushing something invisible ahead of him.' That's the appropriate posture for a knowledge executive. ~ Harlan Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Harlan Cleveland
At first I wanted to be a jockey. I rode horses in Cleveland but I kept falling off and I was afraid of horses. So there wasn't much of a future in it. ~ Tim Conway
Cleveland quotes by Tim Conway
The United States is not a nation to which peace is a necessity. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
The director of the [Grimm] pilot called me in. I had worked on a pilot called Love Bites with him, and the producers I worked on with on Hot In Cleveland, so they knew me from comedic worlds, and they wanted someone who could be light too. Because it is pretty heavy. ~ David Giuntoli
Cleveland quotes by David Giuntoli
You can give of your talent, you can give of your possessions, or you can give of yourself. For God's sake, give something. ~ Cleveland Amory
Cleveland quotes by Cleveland Amory
Ann Whitby had a secret and this was a secret no one outside the immediate family could ever know. ~ Anthony Jay Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Anthony Jay Cleveland
The communism of combined wealth and capital, the outgrown of overweening cupidity and selfishness which assiduously undermines the justice and integrity of free institutions, is not less dangerous than the communism of oppressed poverty and toil which, exasperated by injustice and discontent, attacks with wide disorder the citadel of misrule. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
After an existence of nearly 20 years of almost innocuous desuetude, these laws are brought forth. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
[I]n 1938, Superman appeared. He had been mailed to the offices of National Periodical Publications from Cleveland, by a couple of Jewish boys who had imbued him with the powers of a hundred men, of a distant world, and of the full measure of their bespectacled adolescent hopefulness and desperation. ~ Michael Chabon
Cleveland quotes by Michael Chabon
No Mr. West, it was not a choice
New children's chapter book disputes the notion that 400 years of slavery was a result of "mental imprisonment"

Cleveland, OH, - .In the words of the great Stan Lee, "With great power, comes great responsibility." When icons make erroneous statements, often they do so with out recognizing the long reaching effects their thoughtless statements may have. When Kanye West made his very controversial statements regarding slavery, describing it as a choice, an entire generation of young minds were watching and absorbing as inaccurate picture of history was painted for them and presented as fact. Author Michelle Person, former teacher, elementary school principal, and founder of Just Like Me Books (JLM) could not stand by and allow that fallacy to linger unchecked. Committed to promoting a love of reading and increasing literacy rates among high risk readers through an interactive platform that prominently features characters of color, JLM's newest release Leaders of the Revolution tells the story of Toussaint L'Ouverture and the first successful slave uprising in the western world.

The third book in the Nathaniel English series, aimed at children ages 6-11, follows 5th grade Nathaniel as he searches for solutions to his present day problems by learning about important historical figures of the past. Thanks to his mother's extensive at home library, Nathaniel is exposed to information that his teachers don't share, helpin ~ Michelle Person
Cleveland quotes by Michelle Person
Minds do not act together in public; they simply stick together; and when their private activities are resumed, they fly apart again. ~ Grover Cleveland
Cleveland quotes by Grover Cleveland
These stories at times to be stories of a long-lost world when the city of New York was still filled with a river light, when you heard Benny Goodman quartets from a radio in the corner stationary store, when almost everybody wore a hat. Here is the last of that generation of chain smokers who woke to the world in the morning with their coughing, who used to get stoned at cocktail parties and perform obsolete dance steps like 'the Cleveland Chicken,' sail for Europe on ships, who were nostalgic for love and happiness, and whose gods were as ancient as yours and mine, whoever you are. ~ John Cheever
Cleveland quotes by John Cheever
