And the heart is black too, and the world is black, and one can tell oneself that it will pass, but these are only words that one speaks to oneself, for while it is there it is no comfort that it will pass.”
“The same crime element that white people are scared of black people are scared of. While they waiting for legislationto pass, we next door to the killer. All them killers they let out,they're in that building. Just because we black,we get along with the killers? What is that?”
“Don’t you dare come into my world and tell me what color the ocean is! It’s black. Black as midnight. Black and awful!”
“There are moments, Jeeves, when one asks oneself, 'Do trousers matter?'""The mood will pass, sir.”
“We shall be free only together, black and white. We shall survive only together, black and white. We can be human only together, black and white.”
“Black holes are darker than magic markers, but not as black as my mood.”
