How It Feels to Be Colored Me Zora Neale Hurston
When we first started out I had a really big issue and a lot of my loved ones had a really big issue with the fact that I was totally in pain up there and there was a time when I tried to hurt myself off stage, but I got over that.

Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself and become a new person and I think that that is going to be a lot of...

As we took the court for the second half, I made a secret now to myself that I would never listen to a single thing that Mel Thompson said to me again. I would obey him and honor him and follow him, but I would not let him touch the core of me again. He was my coach, but I was my master. Pat Conroy
Gazing up into the darkness I saw myself as a creature driven and derided by vanity; and my eyes burned with anguish and anger. James Joyce
I am the poet of the Body and I am the poet of the Soul, The pleasures of heaven are with me and the pains of hell are with me, The first I graft and increase upon myself, the latter I translateinto a new tongue. Walt Whitman

I am burning myself up and will always do so. Jean Cocteau
I have to teach myself not to read too much into everything. It comes from too long having to read into hardly anything at all. Michael Ondaatje

Fool's gold, or priceless nuggets mined from my singular childhood's rich bohemian seam? I leave it to others to decide. Salman Rushdie

I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade.
