“You saw the race riots in Watts. . . . Do nice people go around burning and looting — and even killing?
Not since last night. When our Marines razed a village outside Khe Sanh in North Vietnam.”
― William C. Anderson, The Apoplectic Palm Tree; or, The happy happening among blacks and whites at the Greater Mount Moriah Solid Rock True Happiness Baptist Church and Funeral Parlor, a novel
“The work of organizing isn't simply waiting and trying to counter whatever oppressive forces do to us; it is building and strengthening our very existence.”
― William C. Anderson
“Let's not get so ecstatic we ignore the fiscal situation. As my agent so delicately pointed out, most novels--providing they get published--net the author about enough for a new typewriter ribbon and a quart of tequila in which to drown his sorrows when he receives his royalty statement. You will find precious few novelists listed in Dun and Bradstreet.”
― William C. Anderson, Roll Up the Wallpaper, We're Moving!
“Any occupation had to be better than wallowing through a sky filled with damp carbon deposits — the excrement of seven million automobiles.”
― William C. Anderson, The Apoplectic Palm Tree; or, The happy happening among blacks and whites at the Greater Mount Moriah Solid Rock True Happiness Baptist Church and Funeral Parlor, a novel
