Jeffrey Fry
“There is a big difference between knowledge and know-how. One, gives insight on how to do something, the other is actually being able to do it”
Jeffrey Fry, Distilled Thoughts

Colson Whitehead
“What had started it, the mess this week? A white cop shot an unarmed black boy three times and killed him. Good old American know-how on display: We do marvels, we do injustice, and our hands were always busy.”
Colson Whitehead, Harlem Shuffle
