Docile Quotations
Negroes - Sweet and docile, Meek, humble, and kind: Beware the day - They change their mind.
Langston Hughes

James Bovard

James Bovard
We who have the final word can speak softly or angrily. We can seek to challenge and annoy, as we need not stay docile and quiet.
William O. Douglas
Oil wealth has been a curse on us, made us weak and docile.
