When People Say You're Charming You Are

What I Don't Write Is As Important As What I Write.

People Only Say I’m Angry Because I’m Black And I’m A Woman.

If I'd Thought That Nobody Would Like It As I Was Writing It, I Would Have Written It Even More. But I Never Think Of The Audience. I Never Think Of People Reading. I Never Think Of People, Period.

I Understood That I Was Inventing Myself, And That I Was Doing This More In The Way Of A Painter Than In The Way Of A Scientist. I Could Not Count On Precision Or Calculation; I Could Only Count On Intuition.

I've Never Gotten Used To Winter And Never Will.
