You think my first instinct is to protect you. because you're small, or a girl, or a stiff. but you're wrong." he leans his face close to mine and wraps his fingers around my chin. his hand smells like metal. when was the last time he held a gun, or a knife? my skin tingles at the point of contact, like he's transmitting electricity through his skin. "my first instinct is to push you until you break, just to see how hard i have to press." he says, his fingers squeezing at the word break. my body tenses at the edge in his voice, so i am coiled as tight as a spring, and i forget to breathe.

Life is about committing ourselves on a daily basis to the best in us. freedom is a state of mind. freedom is an attitude. freedom is a spirit. you may be behind bars, but you still have the capacity to be free. i've visited some people behind bars who are freer than negroes i see running around every day. being in jail, or poor, or uneducated doesn't determine how free you can be. there are really only two types of people. either you're running scared or you're running free. i choose to run free, and you can, too, no matter what your circumstances in life.

My parents never put a lot of pressure on us to be any kind of way.... i have my funny moments where i look at myself and think, oh, this is a disaster. but you have to give yourself a reality check and go, all right, if i feel this way, i'm going to do something about it that's healthy. i can't look at somebody who is 6 feet tall and 120 pounds and say, i'm going to get that body. that's just never going to happen. you have to work with what you've got.

Conservatives recognize there's gonna be winners and losers. the communists say that's not right. there shouldn't be any losers, and they set about trying to create circumstances where people think nobody will lose. but everybody loses under communism. they eventually have to build walls around countries to keep people in, as in the berlin wall.
