Richard Wright
“I killed ’em ’cause I was scared and mad. But I been scared and mad all my life and after I killed that first woman, I wasn’t scared no more for a little while.â€� “What were you afraid of?â€� “Everything,â€� he breathed and buried his face in his hands. “Did you ever hope for anything, Bigger?â€� “What for? I couldn’t get it. I’m black,â€� he mumbled. “Didn’t you ever want to be happy?â€� “Yeah; I guess so,â€� he said, straightening. “How did you think you could be happy?â€� “I don’t know. I wanted to do things. But everything I wanted to do I couldn’t. I wanted to do what the white boys in school did. Some of ’em went to college. Some of’em went to the army. But I couldn’t go.â€� “But still, you wanted to be happy?â€� “Yeah; sure. Everybody wants to be happy, I reckon.â€� “Did you think you ever would be?â€� “I don’t know. I just went to bed at night and got up in the morning. I just lived from day to day. I thought maybe I would be.”
Richard Wright, Native Son

“Deciding to wait, Scott sat down with a pint away from the bar at a corner table and lit a cigarette. The clientele in there on Sunday afternoon were the same as most other afternoons. From middle-aged to old men, drinking and cursing at the world like it was the last bus which had just left the stop without them.”
R.D. Ronald, The Elephant Tree

Gabriel F.W. Koch
“Nine roses around the lion…God in heaven that’s the Tumbaar coat-of-arms.”
Gabriel F.W. Koch, Steel Blood

C. Toni Graham
“Toni's Talk: When you invest in yourself, you have instant credibility with your biggest critic...you! As soon as you let doubt creep in---you lose that investment. Make a daily commitment to assess your worth with positive affirmations and watch your investment grow.”
