More From Bell Hooks

I never wanted to grow a thicker skin; i felt a real sense of pride in my thin skin, and in a weird way, i still do, because it's my thin skin that allows me to empathize with other people. it's the thing that allows me to create vulnerable art. it's the thing that allows me to create other feelings and make songs that actually grab people and touch people. i feel like i've spent my life fighting that thicker skin because i don't want to become an embittered asshole.

For many years, i have been moved by the blue at the far edge of what can be seen, that color of horizons, of remote mountain ranges, of anything far away. the color of that distance is the color of an emotion, the color of solitude and of desire, the color of there seen from here, the color of where you are not. and the color of where you can never go.

Space expands or contracts in the tensions and functions through which it exists. space is not a static, inert thing. space is alive; space is dynamic; space is imbued with movement expressed by forces and counterforces; space vibrates and resounds with color, light and form in the rhythm of life.

She was beautiful, but not like those girls in the magazines. she was beautiful, for the way she thought. she was beautiful, for the sparkle in her eyes when she talked about something she loved. she was beautiful, for her ability to make other people smile, even if she was sad. no, she wasn't beautiful for something as temporary as her looks. she was beautiful, deep down to her soul. she is beautiful.

I've been around a long time and i've found that these forms, whether it's the cartoon, or whether it's a play, or all these dying forms refuse to die. something happens to rejuvenate them and it will certainly happen to the political cartoon. it will come back. but whether it's on the internet, or whether it's in some other form, however that works, whether it looks the way it looks now, or entirely different, i have no idea. and thank god i don't have to worry about it.

I like that sarah palin. she looks like the flight attendant who won't give you a second can of pepsi ... she looks like the nurse who weighs you and then makes you sit alone in your underwear for 20 minutes ... she looks like a real estate agent whose picture you see on the bus stop bench ... she looks like the hygienist who makes you feel guilty about not flossing ... she looks like the relieved mom in a tide commercial.

If i find something i like, i'll chase it and see what comes out the other side. once a song gets momentum and gets away from you, that's a good sign.
