More From Lorraine Hansberry

I know when i grew up, it was, if it was daylight outside, get outside. well, now, with the technological age of computers and everything, everyone's inside virtually going everywhere they want to go, virtually having relationships, virtually traveling across the neighborhood, virtually going to that island.
Islands Age Daylight
Science is nothing but trained and organized common sense differing from the latter only as a veteran may differ from a raw recruit: and its methods differ from those of common sense only as far as the guardsman's cut and thrust differ from the manner in which a savage wields his club.
Cutting Science Common Sense
I am mindful that scientific achievement is rooted in the past, is cultivated to full stature by many contemporaries and flourishes only in favorable environment. no individual is alone responsible for a single stepping stone along the path of progress, and where the path is smooth progress is most rapid. in my own work this has been particularly true.
Science Past Achievement
The painting showed a hairless, oppressed creature with a head like an inverted pear, its hands clapped in horror to its ears, its mouth open in a vast, soundless scream. twisted ripples of the creature's torment, echoes of its cry, flooded out into the air surrounding it; the man or woman, whichever it was, had become contained by its own howl. it had covered its ears against its own sound. the creature stood on a bridge and no one else was present; the creature screamed in isolation. cut off by - or despite - its outcry.
Cutting Men Echoes
When i'm writing, especially when i'm writing in first person, i don't think about the characterization, or how they are going to express themselves, i just express my own approach to these things. i think most writers can never divorce themselves from their private lives and personas; they are the ones that are writing. and the more they remove themselves from their own persona, the more, perhaps, mechanical the work becomes.
Divorce Writing Thinking
I believe in recognizing every human being as a human being--neither white, black, brown, or red; and when you are dealing with humanity as a family there's no question of integration or intermarriage. it's just one human being marrying another human being or one human being living around and with another human being.

You may think that those aeroplanes in this city on 9/11 came out of a clear, blue sky. i believe they emerged out of a swamp of hatred created by us.
Believe Blue Sky
I'd like to believe that i would be able to give in the same way mandela did, but in reality, i don't know whether that is true. it is much more likely that i would be left with an immense sense of injustice and immense desire for revenge.
Revenge Believe Reality
There are two men in each one of us: the scientist, he who starts with a clear field and desires to rise to the knowledge of nature through observations, experimentation and reasoning, and the man of sentiment, the man of belief, the man who mourns his dead children, and who cannot, alas, prove that he will see them again, but who believes that he will, and lives in the hope – the man who will not die like a vibrio, but who feels that the force that is within him cannot die.
Children Believe Men
Why not hold on to whatever i've got because it's as good as it's ever going to get. how can i believe that love is coming, how can i even believe that love exists; if i don't believe it's spiritually based?
Believe Love Is Why Not
