Honour belongs to those who never forsake the truth even when things seem dark and grim, who try over and over again, who are never discouraged by insults, humiliation and even defeat. Since the dawn of history, mankind has honored and respected brave and honest people. Nelson Mandela #BlackHistory

To love is good, too: love being difficult. For one human being to love another: that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation. —Rainer Maria Rilke, tr. by John Mood #love #Rilke #Valentine’sDay

Luxury, then, is a way of being ignorant, comfortably An approach to the open market of least information. Where theories can thrive, under heavy tarpaulins without being cracked by ideas. —Amiri Baraka #BlackHistoryMonth #poetry #NewarkNJ

Some women wait for themselves around the next corner and call the empty spot peace but the opposite of living is only not living and the stars do not care. Some women wait for something to change and nothing does change so they change themselves. —Audre Lorde #poetry #black #history #month

It is hope’s spell that glorifies, Like youth, to my maturer eyes, All Nature’s million mysteries, The fearful and the fair— Hope soothes me in the griefs I know; She lulls my pain for others’ woe, And makes me strong to undergo What I am born to bear. —From “Anticipation” by Emily Bronte #poetry
