I adore my black skin and my kinky hair. The Negro hair is more educated than the white man's hair. Because with Negro hair, where you put it, it stays. It's obedient.... If reincarnation exists I want to come back black.
Carolina Maria de Jesus
Quote of the day
From too much love of living, From hope and fear set free, We thank with brief thanksgiving Whatever gods may be That no life lives for ever, That dead men rise up never; That even the weariest river Winds somewhere safe to sea.
