“I am as harmless as a little child, but I don’t like to be dictated to.”
Sayfa 62Kitabı okuyor
Senin bu ellerinde ne var bilmiyorum göğe bakalım
Tuttukça güçleniyorum kalabalık oluyorum
Bu senin eski zaman gözlerin yalnız gibi ağaçlar gibi
Sularım ısınsın diye bakıyorum ısınıyor
Seni aldım bu sunturlu yere getirdim
Sayısız penceren vardı bir bir kapattım
Bana dönesin diye bir bir kapattım
Şimdi otobüs gelir biner gideriz
Dönmeyeceğimiz bir yer beğen başka türlüsü güç
Bir ellerin bir ellerim yeter belleyelim yetsin
Seni aldım bana ayırdım durma kendini hatırlat
Durma kendini hatırlat
Durma göğe bakalım
“I don’t like work- no man does- but I like what is in the work- the chance to find yourself. Your own reality- for yourself, not for others- what no man can ever know. They can only see the mere show, and never can tell what it really means.”

There is a taint of death, a flavour of mortality in lies -which is exactly what I hate and detest in the world- what I want to forget. It makes me miserable and sick, like biting something rotten would do.

I start to wonder why us need love. Why us suffer. Why us black. Why us men and women. Where do the children really come from. It didn’t take long to realize I didn’t hardly know nothing.

Their word for naked is white. But since they are covered by color they are not naked. They said anybody looking at a white person can tell they naked, but black people can not be naked because they can not be white.

It? I ast.
Yeah, It. God ain’t a he or she, but a It.
But what do it look like? I ast.
Don’t look like nothing, she say. It ain’t a picture show. It ain’t something you can look at apart from anything else, including yourself. I believe God is everything. Everything that is ever was or ever will be. And when you can feel that, and be happy to feel that, you’ve found it.

The thing I believe. God is inside you and inside everybody else. You come into the world with God. But only them that search for it inside find it.
