I leave no one to regret me much: I have only a father; and he is lately married, and will not miss me. By dying young, I shall escape great sufferings. I had not qualities or talents to make my way very well in the world: I should have been... Charlotte Bronte
See the BEAR of fearsome size! All the WORLD'S within his eyes. TIME grows thin, the past is a riddle; The TOWER awaits you in the middle. Stephen King
Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "The world stands on absurdities, and without them perhaps..."
The world stands on absurdities, and without them perhaps nothing at all would happen. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Black males who refuse categorization are rare, for the price of visibility in the contemporary world of white supremacy is that black identity be defined in relation to the stereotype whether by embodying it or seeking to be other than it…Negative stereotypes about the nature of black masculinity continue to overdetermine the identities black males are allowed to fashion for themselves.

John Fowles quote: "The world began in hazard and will end in it."
The world began in hazard and will end in it. John Fowles
