Turning Words Into Verbs: Onto the Next

My Thoughts Exactly...

I am a direct insult to what the ~~fuck~~ Satan invested time in.
(C.P. Maze)

My first responsibility is to let my caged words take flight and not believe the hype that what I say don't make a difference.
(Mayda del Valle)

...but with something as permanent as death looming like oxygen, passin' you up because God had your back again, how could you sit back and act like you know exactly where you'll go when you're dying?
(Cierra Robinson)

I'm a conceited elitist that's borderline genius, who speaks dope wrote broken down English.
(Tommy Bottoms)

If you speak about it, you should be about it, not just preach about it all day. Cause if you don't you run the risk of chasing some of the most beautiful people away, and it is never my intention to discourage you- rather encourage you to change your life today.
(Lyfe Jennings)

The only man who behaves sensibly is my tailor. He takes me measurements anew each time he sees me. The rest go on with their old measurements and expect me to fit them.
(George Bernard Shaw)

Onto the Next

So, I finally finished reading Bebe Moore Campbell's Your Blues Aint Like Mine. That thing was real. Never before has a book stirred up so much emotion in that I had to stop reading it because it was affecting my mood on a daily basis. Either way, I just want to share a few lines I read in the book and liked.

"Life will give you what you deserve, even when people don't. You don't believe that, you just keep on living."

"The streets is killing more black boys than white folks ever could. We always had more than one enemy."

... there's another page that said something about "if you think you've been licked, then they already won", but cleary I didn't mark the page, and I can't find it.

The next book I'm reading is Basketball Jones by E. Lynn Harris. He's an author I spent a lot of time reading my freshman year, because someone had a lot of his books. Easy access is a sure way for me to read up on anything. If it's readily available and appears interesting, I'm with it. I actually got this book from my roommate who just finished reading it. Crazy thing is, he (E. Lynn Harris) died last week, and my first tattoo is a quote I took from one of his novels.

I guess, in a way, he's with me forever then. It says "She and Survival were long time friends". At this time (look below), the tattoo was still fresh.
