Gabriel García Márquez
“The cholera was much more devastating to the black population, which was larger and poorer, but in reality it had no regard for color or background.”
Gabriel García Márquez

“The circumstances of everyday life were too demanding-and in American's great cities, appalling.”
Charles E. Rosenberg, The Cholera Years: The United States in 1832, 1849, and 1866
