More From Paul Robeson

One of the things that made the black muslim movement grow was its emphasis upon things african. this was the secret to the growth of the black muslim movement. african blood, african origin, african culture, african ties. and you'd be surprised - we discovered that deep within the subconscious of the black man in this country, he is still more african than he is american.

It is very hard to enroll people in anything. and there is a very big difference between the words motivate and inspire. motivation means we have an idea and we are going to carry through on that idea. we work hard at it, and we are disciplined. a highly motivated person takes an idea, goes out there, and won't let anybody interfere with them. inspiration is exactly the opposite. if motivation is when you get hold of an idea and carry it through to its conclusion, inspiration is the reverse. an idea gets hold of you and carries you where you are intended to go.
Motivation Inspiration Mean
