[edit] Joe louis quotes
Who found all of these quotes? You see, I'm doing a project about things or people that lived, or were going on, during 1930's. It just so happens that I am doing my report on Joe louis and I have to do a work cited page, and I wanted to give credit to whomever gathered these together..... Hope you don't mind, and I think whomever did find these are so very awesome, cause I, of course, wouldn't have been able to otherwise.
