Black Quotes
Text Quotes

I stared out the window the whole way, because it was raining, which is how I like the city best. It looks like it’s been polished up. All the streets shine and lights from everywhere reflect off the black. It’s like the whole place has been dipped in sugar syrup. Like the city is some kind of big candy apple (Black Quotes)
Black people loving and losing is something we don’t see enough of. We’re always in these heightened situations like something big is happening, something funny or something violent.

I’m not interested in edges. I’m interested in the mass and color, the black and white. The edges happen because the forms get as quiet as they can be. I want the masses to perform. When I work with forms and colors, I get the edge (Black Quotes)

When the black and mortal blood of man has fallen to the ground... who then can sing spells to call it back again? (Black Quotes)
Tons of women would love to have sex with me. I hate the image of black men as promiscuous and unable to control themselves sexually. I don’t like that image (Black Quotes)
Women are so perverse. Look how they won’t wear black when nothing suits them so well! (Black Quotes)

I’ve never seen black men with fine white women. They be ugly. Mugly dogs (Black Quotes)

All lies, white or black, disgrace a gentleman, although I grant there is a difference: to say the least of it, it is a dangerous habit, for white lies are but the gentleman ushers to black ones (Black Quotes)
Black or white good parts are hard to come by. A good actor with a good opportunity has a shot; without the opportunity it doesn’t matter how good you are (Black Quotes)
Evil lives in a pit. If you want to fight it, you must climb down into the slime to do so. White cloaks show the dirt more thank black, and silver tarnishes (Black Quotes)
