Someone's killed 100,000 people. we're almost going, "well done! you killed 100,000 people? you must get up very early in the morning! i can't even get down the gym. your diary must look odd: 'get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death - lunch - death, death, death - afternoon tea - death, death, death - quick shower ...' "

He knew how to handle pain. you had to lie down with pain, not draw back away from it. you let yourself sort of move around the outside edge of pain like with cold water until you finally got up your nerve to take yourself in hand. then you took a deep breath and dove in and let yourself sink down it clear to the bottom. and after you had been down inside pain a while you found that like with cold water it was not nearly as cold as you had thought it was when your muscles were cringing themselves away from the outside edge of it as you moved around it trying to get up your nerve. he knew pain.

Truth is far and flat, and fancy is fiery; and truth is cold, and people feel the cold, and they may wrap themselves against it in fancies that are fiery, but they should not call them facts; and, generally, poets do not; they are shrewd, they feel the cold, too, but they know a hawk from a handsaw, a fact from a fancy, as none knows better.

Grief does not end and love does not die and nothing fills its graven place. with grace, pain is transmuted into the gold of wisdom and compassion and the lesser coin of muted sadness and resignation; but something leaden of it remains, to become the kernel arond which more pain accretes (a black pearl): one pain becomes every other pain ... unless one strips away, one by one, the layers of pain to get to the heart of the pain - and this causes more pain, pain so intense as to feel like evisceration.

The only way to be a champion is by going through these forced reps and the torture and pain. that's way i call it the torture routine. because it's like forced torture. torturing my body. what helps me is to think of this pain as pleasure. pain makes me grow. growing is what i want. therefore, for me pain is pleasure. and so when i am experiencing pain i'm in heaven. it's great. people suggest this is masochistic. but they're wrong. i like pain for a particular reason. i don't like needle's stuck in my arm. but i do like the pain that is necessary to be a champion.

Somewhere in the center of my soul, a rusty chain began to unwind. it freed itself, link by link, from where it had rested, unobserved, waiting for him. my hands, which had been balled up and pressed against his chest, unfurled with it. the chain continued to drop, to an unfathomable depth where there was nothing but darkness and matthew. at last it snapped to its full length, anchoring me to a vampire. despite the manuscript, despite the fact that my hands contained enough voltage to run a microwave, and despite the photograph, as long as i was connected to him, i was safe.

Because the honorable elijah muhammad makes black people brave enough, men enough to defend ourselves no matter what the odds are, the white man runs around here with a doctrine that mr. muhammad is advocating the violence when he is actually telling negroes to defend themselves against violent people.
