Malcolm X
“Sitting at the table doesn't make you a diner, unless you eat some of what's on that plate. Being here in America doesn't make you an American. Being born here in America doesn't make you an American.”
Malcolm X

Margaret Atwood
“Human understanding is fallible, and we see through a glass, darkly. Any religion is a shadow of God. But the shadows of God are not God.”
Margaret Atwood, The Year of the Flood

Anna Sewell
“and that when he was past work he should be shot and buried.”
Anna Sewell, Black Beauty

Francine  Rivers
“How many others suffered in silence, too ashamed and too afraid to speak about their pain? The world wouldn't let them grieve for children they had aborted. How could they when the rhetoric said there was no child? How does one grieve what doesn't exist? No one wanted to admit the truth.”
Francine Rivers, The Atonement Child

Dorothy Allison
“Two or three things I know for sure, and one is that I'd rather go naked than wear the coat the world has made for me.”
Dorothy Allison, Two or Three Things I Know for Sure
