Yet we hold onto our roots  (South Quotes) I moved to New York to work in theater, so my range of motion was really from where I lived - which was downtown, in the Lower East Side - to Midtown, where the theaters are. So I got to know New York, Midtown and south  (South Quotes) I’m happy to be on a winning team. My individual success, that lasts for a short period of time. The success of being a part of the South, of Atlanta, which is now the hot bed of music, that’s what’s gonna last the longest.

The web offered a way around that  (South Quotes) South Korea first allowed women into the military in 1950 during the Korean War.

We talked fairly proper. Plus, we had a Midwestern accent, so we didn’t have a Southern accent, either. So it wasn’t really talking white; it was talking different  (South Quotes) In fact, every place I’ve been to in Africa has a nice part, but you see the downside. Calcutta , parts of Central and South America , I’ve seen a lot of dead bodies and a lot of sad poverty and just obliteration  (South Quotes) I used to watch a lot of documentaries about Satanic possession - and I don’t know if this is racist or not - but in the documentaries, it never happened to Americans! It was always happening in Central America or South America; that’s where the priest was always going down to exorcise possessed people. So I didn’t have a lot of fear of being possessed by the devil  (South Quotes) I don’t think my grandmother would ever be convinced, but my family was convinced that I was convinced, and actually, they came around. My mother ended up going to fundraisers in Chicago that were raising money to send to the students in the South and actually, over years, she went to an elevated train bus station one day at 6:00 a.m. to hand out leaflets protesting the war  (South Quotes) Before I started studying martial arts, I had temper problems. I could definitely fly off the handle. Being raised in the south in 1956 definitely gave me some memories to latch onto for negative emotions  (South Quotes) For unknown reasons, there is a tremendous concentration of psychoactive plants on the South American continent. The South American continent has more known hallucinogens than the rest of the planet combined  (South Quotes) The South Vietnamese were perhaps a little bit slow in doing things, they jump on, on the problem and they try to do themselves everything. Or, they try to have some short cuts with the, those people they were dealing with  (South Quotes) The first comfort women didn’t actually come forward until 1992, and since then, the issue has really been kicked up. Japan issued a 1993 acknowledgement on this. It’s called the Kono Agreement. But in recent years, South Korea has been wanting an apology to go much further  (South Quotes) I’m dealing with very, very talented people, smart people, good people. And I think they will be competing. We still have a competition. I had great victory yesterday. South Carolina was amazing. New Hampshire was amazing. The size of the victories, I think, were incredible  (South Quotes) The time will come when the Negro in the South will be accorded all the political rights which his ability, character, and material possessions entitle him to  (South Quotes) There’s definitely a way of thinking and a way of being in the South that has its advantages and disadvantages.  (South Quotes) The separate water foundations, park benches, bathrooms and restaurants of the Jim Crow South startled me.

Lots of sword fighting, mud in hair and lots of weeping! It’s very different from ‘Downton’ because I was going to work and having mud put in my hair - it’s the other extreme of the look!  (South Quotes) Nelson Mandela was an outstanding leader and a mentor for me. I was in South Africa at the time he was released. I was in South Africa when he was inaugurated as the first president.  (South Quotes) Being born white in South Africa or anywhere in the empire and Commonwealth automatically conferred this special status.
