"Returning hate for hate multiplies hate..."

--

Martin Luther King, Jr.

“I was not a big comic-book reader.”
“God did not create woman from manâ€™s head, that he should command her, nor from his feet, that she should be his slave, but rather from his side, that she should be near his heart.”
“I've never quite believed that one chance is all I get”
“I just don't like big guys who speak cryptically and act like they understand the language better than me.”
“Every once in a while, a cookbook comes along that simply knocks me out.”
“I love Jesus, who said to us: Heaven and earth will pass away. When heaven and earth have passed away, my word will remain. What was your word, Jesus? Love? Forgiveness? Affection? All your words were one word: Wakeup.”

“The blues is the foundation, and it's got to carry the top. The other part of the scene, the rock 'n' roll and the jazz, are the walls of the blues.”
“A rut... is little more than a coffin with the ends kicked out.”
