“Some people do not become thinkers simply because their memories are too good.”

“Pitch-black winter nights live in my bones.”

“Let your love to life be love to your highest hope; and let your highest hope be the highest thought of life!”

“Reason's last step is to acknowledge that there are infinitely many thingsbeyond it.”

“The truth frequently seems unreasonable; the truth frequently is depressing; the truth sometimes seems to be evil, but it has the eternal advantage, it is the truth and what is built thereon neither brings nor yields to confusion.”

“I've still not written as well as I want to. I want to write so that the reader in Des Moines, Iowa, in Kowloon, China, in Cape Town, South Africa, can say, 'You know, that's the truth. I wasn't there, and I wasn't a six-foot black girl, but that's the truth.'”

“Take the blinders from your vision take the padding from your ears and confess you've heard me crying and admit you've seen my tears.”
