“If people are laughing, they are learning. True learning is a joy because it is an act of creation.”

“Truth lights up the soul in proportion to its purity, not in any sense to its quantity. It isn't the quantity of metal which matters, but the degree of alloy. In this respect, a little pure gold is worth a lot of pure gold. A little pure truth is worth as much as a lot of pure truth. Similarly, one perfect Greek statue contains as much beauty as two perfect Greek statues.”

“For some, the blackness or darkness of the Madonna remains unresolved. Some claim that the Madonna is black because she survived fires that destroyed all but her; others say that she was darkened by candle smoke. I say that she is dark because she has entered so many lives on fire, because she's absorbed so much suffering. Some conclude that the Madonna is black for no reason, that her darkness means nothing. Others say she is a symbol, an archetype, psyche's shadow. I say that the Black Madonna is all these things and that she is a black woman, a woman of color, a brown woman, a red woman, and more. She is not white. She is more, she includes all colors. She is dark because we come in so many colors, hues, and shades, and no one, no one is to be left out.”
