"The stars went out and so did the moon. The singer stopped playing and went to bed. While the Weary Blues echoed through his head."
"I've been a victim of the white press, the black press, and the communist press."
"I would like to be a part of a world where people are not judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
"If white people are pleased we are glad. If they are not, it doesn't matter. We know we are beautiful. And ugly too. The tom-tom cries and the tom-tom laughs. If colored people are pleased we are glad…"
"The night is beautiful, so the faces of my people. The stars are beautiful, so the eyes of my people. Beautiful, also, is the sun. Beautiful, also, are the souls of my people."
