Everywhere I go, kids walk around not with books under their arms, but with radios up against their heads. Children can't read or write, but they can memorize whole albums.

We picked their cotton. We cooked their food. We nursed their babies. Now we can run their cities. We can run their states. We will run the country.

The ground is no place for a champion. The ground is no place that I will wallow on.

We must not measure greatness from the mansion down, but from the manger up.
