Don't tell me to believe. Don't tell me to believe in the same God or laws that men believe in who commit these murders. Don't tell me to believe that God can bless this country and that men are judged by their peers. Who among his peers judged him? Was I there? Was the minister there? Was Harry Williams there? Was Farrell Jarreau? Was my aunt? Was Vivian? No, his peers did not judge him, and I will not believe.

I write with as much objectivity as I can.

You've got to bend with the wind or you're broken.

I think I'm a very religious person. I think I believe in God as much as any man does. I don't only believe in God, I know there's God.

Everything's been said, but it needs saying again.

Question everything. Every stripe, every star, every word spoken. Everything.

I wanted to be a writer. I wanted to say something about home.
