“In white culture, forgiveness is synonymous with letting go. In my culture, I believe we carry pain until we can reconcile with it through ceremony. Pain is not framed like a problem with a solution. I don’t even know that white people see transcendence the way we do. I’m not sure that their dichotomies apply to me.”

“I can hear my aunt's voice, telling me that if my security depends on a man's words or action, I've lost sight of my power.”

“Hapiness was never important. The problem is that we don't know what we really want. What makes us happy is not to get what we want. But to dream about it. Hapiness is for opportunists. So I think the only life of deep satisfaction is a life of eternal struggle, specially struggle with oneself. If you want to be happy, just remain stupid. Authentic masters are never happy, hapiness is a category of slaves.”
