“Growing up Black in the South, it’s pretty common to find yourself in old places that just… weren’t made for you. Maybe it’s a building, a historic district, or a street. Some space that was originally built for white people and white people only, and you just have to hold that knowledge while going about your business.”
― Tracy Deonn, Legendborn

“Everything has two histories. Especially in the South.”
― Tracy Deonn, Legendborn

“Who's the literary nerd? The quoter or the one who recognizes the quote?”
― Tracy Deonn, Legendborn

“What would the world be like without music or rivers or the green and tender grass? What would this world be like without dogs?”
― Mary Oliver, Dog Songs: Poems
