What pages are these quotes on in the novel "Invisible Man" by Ellison?
1. “Our white is so white you can paint a chunka coal and you’d have to crack it open with a sledge hammer to prove it wasn’t white clear through.”
2. . . . the cast-iron figure of a very black, red-lipped and wide-mouthed Negro . . . stared up at me from the floor, his face an enormous grin, his single large black hand held palm up before his chest. It was a bank, a piece of early Americana, the kind of bank which, if a coin is placed in the hand and a lever pressed upon the back, will raise its arm and flip the coin into the grinning mouth.
3. And my problem was that I always tried to go in everyone’s way but my own. I have also been called one thing and then another while no one really wished to hear what I called myself. So after years of trying to adopt the opinions of others I finally rebelled. I am an invisible man.
Thanks; 10 points for best answer.
There's no way I can answer this without knowing which edition you have in mind. This book has been in print for decades, and there have been a lot of editions in both hardback and paperback. Worldcat says that the original Random House version has been published in over 200 editions, and there have been versions by other publishers. The quotes will be on different pages in hardbacks and softbacks, small copies, trade paperbacks, etc.
