“But when I see a story on welfare on television, they only show black people.”

When you’re black, you have to deal with so much crap in your life from other black people. It’s a dirty, dark secret; I’m glad it’s coming out.

When you read the book you see that these guys aren’t holding any punches. They’re straightforward. They’re honest. They’re giving you their honest opinion.

I have nothing against old people; I want to be one myself one day.

I don’t worry about playing basketball; that comes natural. I just want to have fun.

You can talk without saying a thing. I don’t ever want to be that type of person.

Poor people have been voting for Democrats for the last 50 years and they’re still poor.

Listening to a woman is almost as bad as losing to one. There are only three things that women are better at than men: cleaning, cooking, and having sex.

We’re not all supposed to think alike.

I know a lot of people did a lot of heavy lifting to make me successful and I do everything in my power not to screw it up.

I want to be a politician. I think I understand how the system works, I think a lot of politicians are corrupt, and it’s about time we put some people in there who are going to look out for the majority of the people instead of the rich people.

Poor white people and poor black people just don’t know how much they have in common. Rich people don’t give a damn about either group.

The main thing to do is relax and let your talent do the work.

He’s got to bring something stronger than that. That’s like bringing milk to a bar, it’s not strong enough

Unfortunately, as I tell my white friends, we as black people, we’re never going to be successful not because of you white people but because of other black people.

Half Man, Half Sit-Out-The-Season.

This is why I hate white people. You guys try to turn everything into a racial issue.

The projects that I end up doing, that I want to be involved with in any way, have always been projects that will be impactful, for the most part, to my people – to black people.

My job is to be the constructive awakener of the black masses of the world so them know themself and others know what black people suppose to be and where.

I remember how being young and Black and gay and lonely felt. A lot of it was fine, feeling I had the truth and the light and the key, but a lot of it was purely hell.

If the universe is meaningless, so is the statement that it is so. If this world is a vicious trap, so is its accuser, and the pot is calling the kettle black.

You are never too old to have a revelation.

Don’t worry about the Black Panther Party. As long as you keep the beat, we’ll keep on going.

The thing worse than rebellion is the thing that causes rebellion.

I have a great relationship with the blacks.
