I am not blind to the shortcomings of our own people.
My teachers treated me as a diamond in the rough, someone who needed smoothing.
I was born in revolution.
I asked a man in prison once how he happened to be there and he said he had stolen a pair of shoes. I told him if he had stolen a railroad he would be a United States Senator.
Mourn the dead, fight like hell for the living
Injustice boils in men's hearts as does steel in its cauldron, ready to pour forth, white hot, in the fullness of time.
