“Words Like Freedom

There are words like Freedom
Sweet and wonderful to say.
On my heartstrings freedom sings
All day everyday.

There are words like Liberty
That almost make me cry.
If you had known what I know
You would know why.”
― Langston Hughes, The Panther and the Lash

“Do you know the opportunity you get when you fail? It is starting again - an opportunity to perform better.”
― Ogwo David Emenike, The Fortune in Failing: Decoding the Message of Failure

“Justice

That Justice is a blind goddess
Is a thing to which we black are wise:
Her bandage hides two festering sores
That once perhaps were eyes.”
― Langston Hughes, The Panther and the Lash

“Happy is the soul that has a friend. Happier is the soul that trusts in the truth of the heart of a friend. Happiest is the soul that knows the solemnity of friendship and honours its laws.”
― Ogwo David Emenike
