Or the moment you found out you were black. That's a profound revelation. The minute you find that out, something happens.

There were going to be political difficulties, but they were never going to have that level of hatred and contempt that my brothers and my sister and myself were exposed to  (We Quotes) Schools must stop being holding pens to keep energetic young people off the job market and off the streets.

That reviewer took no time to really read the book  (We Quotes) What I think the political correctness debate is really about is the power to be able to define. The definers want the power to name. And the defined are now taking that power away from them  (We Quotes) I'm just trying to look at something without blinking, to see what it is like, or it could have been like, and how that had something to do with the way we live now. Novels are always inquiries for me  (We Quotes) Everybody knew what she was called, but nobody anywhere knew her name. Disremembered and unaccounted for, she cannot be lost because no one is looking for her, and even if they were, how can they call her if they don't know her name? Although she has claim, she is not claimed  (We Quotes) I believe that one of the principle ways in which we acquire, hold, and digest information, is via narrative, so I hope you will understand when the remarks I make begin with the first sentence of our childhood, that we all remember, the phrase: Once upon a time  (We Quotes) Tell us what it is to be a woman so that we may know what it is to be a man. What moves at the margin. What it is to have no home in this place. To be set adrift from the one you knew. What it is to live at the edge of towns that cannot bear your company  (We Quotes) Most of our lives are spent in little towns, little towns all throughout the country. That's where we live. And that's where the juices come from and that's where we made it, not made it in terms of success but made who we are  (We Quotes) Our athletic failures on an international stage will be a welcome break from our diplomatic failures on an international stage  (We Quotes) That awkward moment when you're showing someone an old photo of you and you're wearing the same shirt as in the photo  (We Quotes) We men do nothing but lie and make ourselves important. Speech was invented for the purpose of magnifying all of our sensations and impressions, perhaps so that we could believe in them  (We Quotes) If consciousness is, as some inhuman thinker has said, nothing more than a flash of light between two eternities of darkness, then there is nothing more execrable than existence  (We Quotes) Reason, that which we call reason, reflex and reflective knowledge, the distinguishing mark of man, is a social product  (We Quotes) I have told you that... We know nothing save what we have first, in one way or another, desired; and it may even be added that we can know nothing well save what we love, save what we pity  (We Quotes) There is nothing truly real, save that which feels, suffers, pities, loves and desires, save consciousness. And we need God in order to save consciousness; not in order to think existence, but in order to live it; not in order to know the why and how of it, but in order to feel the wherefore of it  (We Quotes) And this God, the living God, your God, our God, is in me, is in you, lives in us, and we live and move and have our being in Him. And he is in us by virtue of the hunger, the longing, which we have for Him, He is Himself creating the longing for Himself  (We Quotes) And above all, we must feel and act as if an endless continuation of our Earthly life awaited us after death; and if it be that nothingness is the fate that awaits us we must not, in the words of Obermann, so act that it shall be a just fate  (We Quotes) Warmth, warmth, more warmth! For we are dying of cold and not of darkness. It is not the night that kills, but the frost  (We Quotes) Only in solitude do we find ourselves; and in finding ourselves, we find in ourselves all our brothers in solitude  (We Quotes) We need God, not in order to understand the why, but in order to feel and sustain the ultimate wherefore, to give a meaning to the universe  (We Quotes) Science says: We must live, and seeks the means of prolonging, increasing, facilitating and amplifying life, of making it tolerable and acceptable; wisdom says: We must die, and seeks how to make us die well  (We Quotes) As women, we have more of a tendency to be people-pleasers, and I know a lot of women who are not vocal about what makes them happy  (We Quotes) He had decided to live forever or die in the attempt, and his only mission each time he went up was to come down alive  (We Quotes) You know, that might be the answer - to act boastfully about something we ought to be ashamed of. That's a trick that never seems to fail  (We Quotes)
