. . . I write to keep in contact with our ancestors and to spread truth to people.

-Sonia Sanchez

 

Consciousness more than anything else is what separates humanity from other animals. Consciousness is attained by the acqusition of knowledge. This is a continual process in a conscious life.

-Stokely Carmichael (Kwame Toure) with Ekwueme Michael Thelwell 

 

You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read.  It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, or who had ever been alive.

-James Baldwin

 

 

If there's a book you really want to read but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.

-Toni Morrison 

We cannot base the education of future citizens on the present inexcusable inequality of wealth nor on physical differences of race.  We must seek not to make men of carpenters but make carpenters men.

-W.E.B. Du Bois

 

A little learning, indeed, may be a dangerous thing, but the want of learning is a calamity to any people.

-Frederick Douglass
