More From Vanilla Ice

White people scare the crap out of me. i have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord, never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and i've never heard a black person say, 'we're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here - have a nice day!'

I've never seen a sincere white man, not when it comes to helping black people. usually things like this are done by white people to benefit themselves. the white man's primary interest is not to elevate the thinking of black people, or to waken black people, or white people either. the white man is interested in the black man only to the extent that the black man is of use to him. the white man's interest is to make money, to exploit.

A manhattan lawyer who describes himself as "america`s leading expert on the militia movement" writes that he hugged his three-year-old kid the night of the oklahoma city bombing. he told junior that it happened "because they hated too much" for now, let`s accept the premise that one hundred sixty-eight humans died in oklahoma city because people "hated too much" now answer these questions if you would be so kind: did a federal sniper shoot vicki weaver in the face because he hated too much? did our government conduct the tuskegee with syphilis on black soldiers because it hated too much?

I hated the mountains and the hills, the rivers and the rain. i hated the sunsets of whatever colour, i hated its beauty and its magic and the secret i would never know. i hated its indifference and the cruelty which was part of its loveliness. above all i hated her. for she belonged to the magic and the loveliness. she had left me thirsty and all my life would be thirst and longing for what i had lost before i found it.

It was not enough to be the last guy she kissed. i wanted to be the last one she loved. and i knew i wasn’t. i knew it, and i hated her for it. i hated her for not caring about me. i hated her for leaving that night, and i hated myself , too, not only because i let her go but because if i had been enough for her, she wouldn’t have even wanted to leave. she would have just lain with me and talked and cried, and i would have listened and kissed at her tears as they pooled in her eyes.
