“The soft life is what I'm settling into and the only question is how deadly it will turn out to be.”
― Don DeLillo, Zero K

“I'm a bluesman moving through a blues-soaked America, a blues-soaked world, a planet where catastrophe and celebration- joy and pain sit side by side. The blues started off in some field, some plantation, in some mind, in some imagination, in some heart. The blues blew over to the next plantation, and then the next state. The blues went south to north, got electrified and even sanctified. The blues got mixed up with jazz and gospel and rock and roll.”
― Cornel West, Brother West: Living and Loving Out Loud, A Memoir

“Freedom is not the same as lack of accountability.”
― Kevin Powers, The Yellow Birds

“Your mind is on vacation and your mouth is working overtime.”
― Buddy Guy
