“There are no black film composers doing the likes of Star Wars, doing the likes of E.T., doing the likes of Jurassic Park. There are none, nor will there ever be one. That ain't about to happen!”

But betrayal, jealousy, love grown cold, and the gray dawn of the morning after are nobody's idea of a good time.”
