Toni Morrison
“It's a bad word, 'belong.' Especially when you put it with somebody you love ... You can't own a human being.”
Toni Morrison, Song of Solomon

Toni Morrison
“Perhaps that's what all human relationships boil down to: Would you save my life? or would you take it?”
Toni Morrison, Song of Solomon

Toni Morrison
“She was the third beer. Not the first one, which the throat receives with almost tearful gratitude; nor the second, that confirms and extends the pleasure of the first. But the third, the one you drink because it's there, because it can't hurt, and because what difference does it make?”
Toni Morrison, Song of Solomon

Toni Morrison
“You can't own a human being. You can't lose what you don't own. Suppose you did own him. Could you really love somebody who was absolutely nobody without you? You really want somebody like that? Somebody who falls apart when you walk out the door? You don't, do you? And neither does he. You're turning over your whole life to him. Your whole life, girl. And if it means so little to you that you can just give it away, hand it to him, then why should it mean any more to him? He can't value you more than you value yourself.”
Toni Morrison, Song of Solomon
