“We cannot address TB only with vaccines and medications. We cannot address it only with comprehensive STP programs. We must also address the root cause of tuberculosis, which is injustice.

“You might think you are all that, winning all sorts of prizes, learning all sorts of things, and that that entitles you to make fun of people. But don't you ever laugh at someone who doesn't know how to spell or read as well as you do!

“Whenever he got mad like that, it just made me shut down, even though he’d never laid a hand on me. I never understood why I didn’t talk back or fight with him, but I just knew I couldn’t win. You learn after a long enough period of time that it’s not worth it.”
Cher, Cher: Part One: The Memoir – An Intimate and Extraordinary Story of a Trailblazing Icon Who Topped Billboard for Seven Decades
