“I have my great grandmother's recipe for black beans, all the way from Cuba, and I know how to make those. I'm actually pretty good at it now. But my first time, the beans actually exploded in the pot, so I had black beans just dripping from the ceiling - which is actually a dream come true for most Cubans. It was a nightmare to clean.” KnowsWayFirstsDreamBlackKnow HowFirst TimeCleanGrandmotherNightmarePotRecipesDreams Come TrueCubaCeilingsBeansCubanDrippingGreat Grandmother Author:Danny Pino
“I think of the old slavery, and of the way The Economy has now improved upon it. The new slavery has improved upon the old by giving the new slaves the illusion that they are free. The Economy does not take people's freedom by force, which would be against its principles, for it is very humane. It buys their freedom, pays for it, and then persuades its money back again with shoddy goods and the promise of freedom. "Buy a car," it says, "and be free. Buy a boat and be free." Is this not the raw material of bad dreams? Or is it maybe the very nightmare itself?” PeopleThinkingWayGivingDoeDreamWould BeForcePayPrinciplesEconomyCarMaterialsPromiseIllusionSlaverySlaveBoatNightmareGoodsConsumerismHumaneBack AgainOverconsumptionRaw MaterialsBad Dream Book:Jayber Crow: A Novel Source: Jayber Crow: A Novel
