Once upon a time freedom used to be life-now it's money. I guess the world really do change.

Mama - Mama - I want so many things... I want so many things that they are driving me kind of crazy.

Sometimes, I can see the future stretched out in front of me - just as plain as day. The future hanging over there at the edge of my days. Just waiting for me.

Seems like God don't see fit to give the black man nothing but dreams - but He did give us children to make them dreams seem worthwhile.

What you ain't never understood is that I ain't got nothing, don't own nothing, ain't never really wanted nothing that wasn't for you. There ain't nothing as precious to me...There ain't nothing worth holding on to, money, dreams, nothing else--

I look at you and I see the final triumph of stupidity in the world!

One for whom bread- food- is not enough.
