Quotes

Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.

{African Americans} have fought and died in every conflict this nation was involved in, from the Revolutionary War onward . . . . We are Americans, and we fought and died to be Americans.

To go somewhere and say: 'I have this really terrific movie, but I need some . . . money' - Good luck!

I am going to stop calling you a white man and I'm going to ask you to stop calling me a black man.

You're going to relegate my history to a month? I don't want a black history month. Black history is American history.

We have 7 billion people on this planet. It’s not that there’s not enough room on this planet for 7 billion people, it’s that the energy needs for 7 billion people are 7 billion people’s worth of energy needs, as opposed to, say, 2 billion. Imagine how much pollution would be in the air and the oceans if there were only 2 billion people putting it in? So yeah, we’re already overpopulated.
