Words worth remembering.

1. The time has come to educate people, to cease all quarrels in the name of religion, culture, countries, different political or economic systems. Fighting is useless. Suicide.

2. You can go to Japan, China, all the European, African, Arabia, and South American countries, and man, they know me. I can't name a nation where they don't know me.

3. Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit.

4. I speak to the black experience, but I am always talking about the human condition- about what we can endure, dream, fail at, and still survive.
