“Every life is its own excuse for being.”
“There is a minority of gifted, willfuf people who are determined to live their own lives to the end, and writers belong in this class.”
“The easiest thing to be in the world is you. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don't let them put you in that position.”

“It doesn't do good to open doors for someone who doesn't have the price to get in. If he has the price, he may not need the laws. There is no law saying the Negro has to live in Harlem or Watts.”
“The ultimate authority must always rest with the individual's own reason and critical analysis.”
“Happiness depends upon ourselves.”
