“I think all races are represented in America much more than in many other places, but it's also nice to remind people about that ethnic mix.

“Nice distinctions are troublesome. It is so much easier to say that a thing is black, than to discriminate the particular shade of brown, blue, or green, to which it really belongs. It is so much easier to make up your mind that your neighbour is good for nothing, than to enter into all the circumstances that would oblige you to modify that opinion.” MindBlackOpinionNiceParticularCircumstancesEasierBlueGreenDistinctionBrownShadeNeighbourTroublesomeMake Up Your Mind Book:Scenes of Clerical Life Source: Scenes of Clerical Life
“When a musical act performs, the black audience goes crazy for all the stuff, the album cuts, everything.

“I have no problem dressing up . . . because I know I'm a nice-looking guy. But as far as chains, I definitely feel that's a racial statement.

“I've always thought it would be fun to update "Hansel and Gretel." I'd have these white parents in the suburbs with an income of fifty or sixty thousand dollars. Daddy loses his job, and the wicked stepmother says, "We could get along, we could keep our Mastercharge, if you'd just get rid of those shitty kids." Finally the father hires a limo and tells the driver, "Drop 'em off on Lenox Avenue in Harlem at two in the morning." These two little white kids land there. They're menaced.
