“My music teacher was like, "Ester, you need to pay attention in class." I'm like, "No miss lady, 'cause I can sing." I didn't want anybody to change the way I sung. I learned by gospel CDs and by watching my momma sing; I didn't need this teacher to tell me. I wish I had, because then I would have learned how to play the damn piano or something. I would have a couple of more things under my belt if I wasn't so hard-headed.” IfsWayWantNeedsI CanHardPlayWishCausesPayAttentionClassTeacherMissingCouplePay AttentionDamnPianoBeltsCdsMommaMusic TeacherMy Momma Author:Ester Dean

“Strength must build up, not destroy. It should outdo itself, not others who are weaker. Used without responsibility, it causes nothing but harm and death. I can lift the heaviest weights, but I can not take the responsibility off my shoulders. Because the way we use our strength defines our fate. What traces will I leave on my path into the future? Do we really have to kill in order to live? My true strength lies in not seeing weakness as weakness. My strength needs no victims. My strength is my compassion.” WayNeedsShouldI CanUseUsedLyingOrderCausesResponsibilityCompassionPathFateSeeingWeaknessWeightVictimHarmShouldersLiftsCan NotTrue Strength Author:Patrik Baboumian

“It's much harder to say "I'm going to kill three of the biggest characters in your universe in a gruesome bloodbath." There can be a lot of differing opinions in a mainstream comic book, you know? "Rogue would never do this!" But I can say, "No, Rogue suffered the death of Charles Xavier and it broke her down and she stumbled into a dark place and she started fixating on the Scarlet Witch as the cause of it all" which, there is a logical chain of events that lead to the Scarlet Witch. And in the confusion, she thought Wanda was up to doing it again and she did what she thought was best.” KnowsI CanBookCharacterUniverseThreeCausesDarkOpinionEventsHarderDown AndConfusionChainsComicBrokeLogicalWitchMainstreamComic BookRoguesScarletDark PlacesChain Of Events Author:Rick Remender
