“Mama says mine is a night mind.”
“One night I was layin' down,I heard Papa talkin' to Mama,I heard Papa say to let that boy boogie-woogie.'Cause it's in him and it's got to come out.”
“Hush, little students, we'll say the word, Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird. And if that mockingbird won't sing, Mama's gonna write down everything. And so that book won't look the same, Mama's gonna add a brand-new name.”
“My mama used to say, 'Are you sad? Then just wait a minute.”
“Mama does everything for the baby, who responds by saying Dada first. ”
“Mama says it’s just her nature. Some people are flowers, and some are thorns.”
