“I know when God gives us somethin' good in this world we gotta hold on long as we can.”

“Sometimes we got to run to get to where the good Lawd need us to go. An' sometimes we got to just sit there an' listen for Him to tell us what to do, even if that mean we gotta suffer a li'l while.”

“We cain't keep lookin' back at out losses. We gotta keep marchin' down that road ahead to the Promised Land. We gotta give up our sorrows to make way for our joys.”

“We don't need much 'round here. Just some food and water. And each other. Really that all that we ever need. And God of course.”

“Besides, the only color God see in any of us is the color of our soul.”

“Gotta always remember where you came from and how you got brought to where you is now. They call it deliverance.”

“God already knows what ya want and He knows what's best for ya. Sometimes they ain't the same thing.”
