“John Coltrane is still probably one of the greatest musicians of this century. His tone truly puts demons on a leash. His gift is directly from the mind of God and is very powerful. ..... The first time I heard a Love Supreme, it was really an assault. It could've been from mars as far as i was concerned, or another galaxy.

I could tell my story and not be ashamed, and show others with these same problems that they aren't alone.” FirstsStoriesShowsProblemAgeFeltMistakeShareFrontsFitFirst TimeClubsI RealizedScalesNakedAshamedMy MistakesCathartic Author:Maureen McCormick
“Like the guy I was dating. White, liberal, educated. I went to meet his family and I think that they probably didn't know they had a problem with it until he walked in with me. And they definitely had issues. Mom had issues with it. Could not, didn't want to see her son. And I don't think she had anything against me. But it was about her son bringing me home. And I felt that for the first time. I was like, 'Wow, that's deep.' It's really simple: I don't fit their picture.” ThinkingKnowsWantFirstsProblemHomeGuyFeltSimpleWhiteIssuesSonMomFitFirst TimeDatingEducatedWow Author:Sanaa Lathan
