I believe that the physical is the geography of the being.

The freer that women become, the freer men will be. Because when you enslave someone, you are enslaved.

Character is the architect of the being.

In the end, as you get older and older, your life is your life, and you are alone with it.

I have made my world and it is a much better world than I ever saw outside.

I never for one minute questioned what I had to do. I did not think for one minute that I didn't have what I had. If just didn't dawn on me. And so if you know what you have, then you know that there's nobody on earth that can affect you.

Early in school, they called me 'the artist.' When teachers wanted things painted, they called upon me, they called upon 'the artist.' I am not saying that I learned my name, animals can learn their names, I am saying that they learned it.
