Quote by Roxanne Gay

“I wish BET did more to represent the full spectrum of black experiences in a balanced manner. If you watch BET, you get the sense that the only way black people succeed is through professional sports, music, or marrying/fucking/being a baby mama of someone who is involved with professional sports or music.”

“If you want me, come fight me," she suggested with a laugh. "I dare you." Every Coyote there perked up. "A thousand on the girl," the leader murmured. "Shut the fuck up, Dog," Malcolm raged furiously. "I got your thousand on the prick there. He has muscle where she doesn't." Loki took the bet before turning to the other two. "Mutt, Mongrel?

"Knives or fists?" she asked, knowing his strengths as well as his weaknesses. "You fucking whore," he snarled. "Take the challenge or walk away," Dog snapped. "We won't take her without the fight." God love a Coyote's heart and his love of a good challenge or a good bet. "I win, we walk away," she demanded as she kept her eyes on Malcolm. Dog's smile was clearly anticipatory, but he nodded easily. "Whip his ass and you walk. He whips yours--you run. How's that?" Diane gave a sharp, firm nod as she smiled at Malcolm. "It's a bet.”

“He came across from the pond, the young man and his fridge travelling over land and sea searching for a meaning and purpose in their lives. We speak of Tony Hawks, the Fridge Man. Tony Hawks who came to live amongst us for all but a short while, a Messiah of sorts. We felt ourselves not worthy to touch the hem of his fridge, but then we realised that he was but an ordinary man, his fridge but a little fridge, the son of a bigger fridge--the Big Fridge--the huge, gigantic Fridge in the Sky.”
