Well, very long ago, on the spot where the Wild Wood waves now, before ever it had planted itself and grown up to what it now is, there was a city - a city of people, you know. Here, where we are standing, they lived, and walked, and talked, and slept, and carried on their business. Here they stabled their horses and feasted, from here they rode out to fight or drove out to trade. They were a powerful people, and rich, and great builders. They built to last, for they thought their city would last for ever. ↗

We just kind of did our own thing and got made fun of by the popular kids. It was kind of like a badge of honor to be an outcast. ↗

The Black skin is not a badge of shame, but rather a glorious symbol of national greatness. ↗
