"When I'm not on T.V. or working on a movie, I'm on the road doing stand-up. That's my roots."

-- Wanda Sykes

“I try to make my books reflect humanity as I see it.”
“I think that a movie can only be an adjunct or only a supplement to books, to different points of view, to scholars, historians and your own teachers.”
“I don't know that we really think any thoughts; we think connections between thoughts. That's where the mind moves, that's what's new, and the thoughts themselves have probably been there in my head or lots of other people's heads for a long time.”
“My whole thing is that I want to explore why you read books, what's the purpose of reading, and maybe that it's not that cool to hate something just because it's popular.”
“I had a newspaper in Flint, Michigan called the 'Flint Voice,' and so it was a, you know, underground, alternative newspaper that I edited and put out for about ten years.”
“When you do the right thing, good stuff has a way of happening.”
“The mind is very powerful. Therefore, it requires firm guidance. A powerful jet plane needs a good pilot; the pilot of your mind should be the wisdom that understands its nature.”
“Love is the answer to everything. It's the only reason to do anything.”
