Hanya Yanagihara
“You won’t understand what I mean now, but someday you will: the only trick of friendship, I think, is to find people who are better than you are—not smarter, not cooler, but kinder, and more generous, and more forgiving—and then to appreciate them for what they can teach you, and to try to listen to them when they tell you something about yourself, no matter how bad—or good—it might be, and to trust them, which is the hardest thing of all. But the best, as well.”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

August Wilson
“I ain't never found no place for me to fit. Seem like all I do is start over. It ain't nothing to find no starting place in the world. You just start from where you find yourself.”
August Wilson, Joe Turner's Come and Gone

“I always tell my students that Malcolm X came both to his spirituality and to his consciousness as a thinker when he had solitude to read. Unfortunately, tragically, like so many young black males, that solitude only came in prison.”
Bell Hooks

“may you kiss
the wind then turn from it
certain that it will
love your back”
Lucille Clifton

Heidi W. Durrow
“If there’s no one else to tell another side - the only story that can be told is the story that becomes true. (p. 173)”
Heidi W. Durrow, The Girl Who Fell from the Sky
