Shank’s Quotes

Robert Fulghum
“Machines and relatives get most of the yelling. But never trees. As for people, well, the Solomon islanders may have a point. Yelling at living thing does tend to kill the spirit in them. Sticks and stones may break our bones, but words will break our hearts.”
― Robert Fulghum, All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten

Colson Whitehead
“Racial prejudice rotted one's faculties.”
