“You have to be very careful introducing the truth to the black man, who has never previously heard the truth about himself. The black brother is so brainwashed that he may reject the truth when he first hears it. You have to drop a little bit on him at a time, and wait a while to let that sink in before advancing to the next step” MenFirstsMayLittlesNextBitsWaitingBlackStepsHeardBrotherLittle BitCarefulRejectsBlack PeopleIntroducingAdvancingNext StepsBrainwashingBrainwashed Author:Malcolm X
“Weirdly, I was still trying to be the older brother, and trying to get him [Tom Berninger] to try to be more like me a little bit. Or not be more like me but... I was frustrated that he sometimes let things stop him in his life, and he let the wind get knocked out of his sails a few times.” TryingLittlesStillsSometimesBitsBrotherWindLittle BitLike MeTomsFrustratedSailOlder Brother Author:Matt Berninger
“I'm a hybrid-genre person, which a lot of people find confusing. I grew up listening to American country music and rock n' roll made between 1955 and 1959. The Everly Brothers and Chuck Berry were my first musical loves and are still what I am most moved by. Roy Orbison came a little bit later.” PeopleFirstsLittlesPersonsMadeStillsCountryBitsRocksBrotherListeningGrewLittle BitGrew UpMovedMusicalGenreRock N RollConfusingChuckBerriesHybridEverly Brothers Author:Teddy Thompson
“Other people--grandparents, sisters and brothers, the mother's best friend, the next-door neighbor--get to be familiar to the baby. If the mother communicates her trust in these people, the baby will regard them as delicious novelties. Anybody the mother trusts whom the baby sees often enough partakes a bit of the presence of the mother.” PeopleIfsEnoughMotherNextBitsDoorsBrotherBabyRegardCommunicateNeighborFamiliarGrandparentBrothers And SistersDeliciousNoveltyNext Door Neighbors Book:Oneness and separateness: from infant to individual Source: Oneness and separateness: from infant to individual
“My writing has to excite people and depict or include their experiences. That's part of my process - to go out and interact with people. It's very much like an archival process. I understand that the Brothers Grimm would go out and get people talking so they could document folk tales that weren't being documented any other way. I try to offer a little bit of myself - some experience from my life that evokes stories in other people.” PeopleWayWritingTryingLittlesStoriesBitsProcessTalkingBrotherOffersLittle BitFolksTalesDocumentsEvokePeople TalkingGrimmBrothers Grimm Author:Chuck Palahniuk
