It may sound funny, but i love the south. i don't choose to live anywhere else. there's land here, where a man can raise cattle, and i'm going to do it some day. there are lakes where a man can sink a hook and fight the bass. there is room here for my children to play and grow, and become good citizens-if the white man will let them.

More From Medgar Evers

Slowly, very slowly, like two unhurried compass needles, the feet turned towards the right; north, north-east, east, south-east, south, south-south-west; then paused, and after a few seconds, turned as unhurriedly back towards the left. south-south-west, south, south-east, east.

Instead of thinking in terms of chords, i think of voice-leading; that is, melody line and bass line, and where the bass line goes. if you do that, you'll have the right chord. [these voices] will give you some alternatives, and you can play those different alternatives to hear which one suits your ear. keep the bass line moving so you don't stay in one spot: if you have an interesting bass line and you roll it against the melody, the chords are going to come out right.

Faites de beaux rêves, monsieur," she called as she put out the light. switters had always loved that expression, "make fine dreams." in contrast to the english, "have sweet dreams," the french implied that the sleeper was not a passive spectator, a captive audience, but had some control over and must accept some responsiblity for his or her dreaming. moreover, a "fine" dream had much wider connotations than a "sweet" one.

How deep is our desire to do better than our mothers--to bring daughters into adulthood strong and fierce yet loving and gentle, adventurous and competitive but still nurturing and friendly, sweet yet sharp. we know as working women that we can't quite have it all, but that hasn't stopped us from wanting it all for them.

If it's a cocktail party, i generally make five or six different things, and i try to choose recipes that feel like a meal: a chicken thing, a fish or shrimp thing, maybe two vegetable things, and i think it's fun to end the cocktail party with a sweet thing.
