“There is sure to come, when the proper education is developed and diffused, an African Literature with the smell of Africa upon it – with an African freedom, African thought and African theology; for the African is not always to be an intellectual pauper, a pensioner of other lands, doing nothing but importing foreign ideas and quoting foreign expressions.
The African is an African, and the European is a European and will remain so forever and ever. There is no more chance of developing the one into the other than there is ….of developing a rabbit into a hare, and it is certainly well for the harmony, the peace and the progress of the world that this is so.” – Edward Wilmot Blyden.
