## Quotes

* When I think of peace from God I think of it more in the sense of a long-term unshakeable peace, a comfort in the bigger picture of a life of faith. So, when the daily things happen and cause momentary and temporary stress we can still hold to the comfort of the cross and have peace.

* If the fork is not removed when the spider has arrived it seems to have the same charm as any fly: for the spider seizes it, embraces it, and runs about on the legs of the fork as often as it is made to sound, never seeming to learn by experience that other things may buzz besides its natural food.

### How to Read a Poem And Fall in Love with Poetry (1998)

* Poetry is a voicing, a calling forth, words waiting to be vocalized.
* Inspiration is inbreathing, indwelling, poetry can never be entirely willed. It may be true a poet is given only a single line but that line is a gift from the unconscious, intution , a perception.
* There is no true poetry unconcious inspiration.
* For most of history poetry has been an oral art, it retains the vestiges of orality, an experience embedded in the sensuality of sounds.
* The poem is an original and unique creation, but it is reading and recitation: participation.
* The poet creates it; the people by recitation recreate it. Poet and reader (hearer) are moments of the same reality.
* The poem is an act beyond paraphrase because what is being said is always inseparable from the way it is being said.
* Poetry is a form of necessary speech.

# Edward James Olmos

Edward James Olmos (February 24, 1947) is an American actor, director, producer, and activist.

## Quotes

* Fight against typecasting? All the time. There’s a truth in the stereotype, that’s why it becomes a stereotype but the problem starts when it’s the only thing you see. When it comes to Latinos in the US, the truth is they [Americans] know very little about us.
** On Latino actors being typecasted in “Edward James Olmos: "I have to fight against being typecast" on Screen Daily (2017 Jul 21)
* The stereotypical usage of any culture, any ethnicity, is based on fact or truth. The difficulty is that that’s the only fact and truth that they use. So therefore, it becomes, “Oh, everyone’s like that,” and everyone isn’t like that. Stereotypes are stereotypes. They’re just one-dimensional characterizations of what the person who’s depicted represents, and that’s the difficulty of what I learned as I moved older into the late ‘50s, early ‘60s, and I was 13, 14…
** On stereotypes being used to judge an entire group of people in “THE LEGENDARY EDWARD JAMES OLMOS ON STAND AND DELIVER, AMERICAN ME, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA AND MORE” in Roger Ebert Interviews (2019 Oct 11)
* We must stop using the word “race” as a cultural determinant and start using it for what it really is. It is a unifying word. There’s no two ways around it. The Caucasian people will have to accept the fact that the changes of diversity on the planet are constant, and that we propagate ourselves at a higher rate. So as far as I’m concerned, people, come to terms with it. You want to really understand the future? You’re going to have to understand that there’s only one race, and that’s the human race. Period.
** On the term “race”in “THE LEGENDARY EDWARD JAMES OLMOS ON STAND AND DELIVER, AMERICAN ME, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA AND MORE” in Roger Ebert Interviews (2019 Oct 11)
* My life has been a privilege. I come from a very humble family. No one in my family was an artist or worked in film…I’m not special. I completely understand that what I did, anyone can do it … I learned to do the things I love to do when I didn’t want to do them.

# Edward James Slattery

Edward James Slattery (August 11, 1940 – September 13, 2024) was an American prelate of the Catholic Church who served as the bishop of the Diocese of Tulsa.

## Quotes

* We should start with prayer. That's where everything starts. We don't start by talking about ourselves or even examining our consciences. We start by prayer, on our knees. We come to the Lord and ask him to let us see ourselves as he sees us. He's the only one who can. God knows each one of us perfectly, and if we're seeking self-knowledge, we must go to him.
** Bishop Slattery on Prayer, the Mass and New Vocations (28 October 2011) National Catholic Register
* It's rewarding to have been a bishop. What is important for us all is that we be aware of the presence of God in the present, in this moment and nowhere else, and then accept whatever comes. Then you know that God is present. Live every day conscious of God's love for you and His presence to you. As far as my achievements as bishop of Tulsa, I haven't any! Anything good I've been able to do is done by God. We're merely privileged to be his instruments.

## Quotes

* You can't drive to Juneau, you can only get to Juneau by air or by water. I come to the diocese of Dallas and I learned that there are no islands and all roads, so just trying to manage that is a challenge. But when people speak to me about the vastness, the number of people, I assure them: "You can only interact with one person at a time, one congregation at a time, one project at a time, so you just stay focused and lean into it."

# African-American history

African-American history is the history of the African American people.

## Quotes

* The first martyr in the American national war of liberation against the British colonialists in the eighteenth century was an African descendant, Crispus Attucks; and both slave and free Africans played a key role in Washington’s armies. And yet, the American Constitution sanctioned the continued enslavement of Africans. In recent times, it has become an object of concern to some liberals that the U.S.A. is capable of war crimes of the order of My Lai in Vietnam. But the fact of the matter is that the My Lais began with the enslavement of Africans and American Indians. Racism, violence, and brutality were the concomitants of the capitalist system when it extended itself abroad in the early centuries of international trade.
** Walter Rodney, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa (1972), p. 89
* African-American history means a long history beginning on the continent of Africa, a history not taught in the standard textbooks of this country. It is absolutely essential that black people know this history, that they know their roots, that they develop an awareness of their cultural heritage. Too long have they been kept in submission by being told that they had no culture, no manifest heritage, before they landed on the slave auction blocks in this country. If black people are to know themselves as a vibrant, valiant people, they must know their roots. And they will soon learn that the Hollywood image of man-eating cannibals waiting for, and waiting on, the Great White Hunter is a lie. With redefinition will come a clearer notion of the role black Americans can play in this world. This role will emerge clearly out of the unique, common experiences of Afro-Asians.
** Kwame Ture and Charles V. Hamilton, Black Power: The Politics of Liberation in America. Vintage Books. 1967. p. 38. ISBN 978-0-394-70033-5.
* The Negroes of the United States have followed leadership slavishly but sometimes unfortunately that of those leaders who are selected for them by the traducers of the race. The enemies of the race, for example, will find a Negro willing to do certain things they desire to have accomplished and will finance him and give him sufficient publicity to get before the world, for the few favors which he may dispense among his followers as a result of his influence and economic position will bring to him the adequate number of Negroes for the constituency which he desires.

# African-American art

African-American art is a broad term describing the visual arts of black Americans (i.e. African Americans). Influenced by various cultural traditions, including those of Africa, Europe and the Americas, traditional African-American art forms include the range of plastic arts, from basket weaving, pottery, and quilting to woodcarving and painting.

## Quotes

* The Black Artist's role in America is to aid in the destruction of America as he knows it. His role is to report and reflect so precisely the nature of the society, and of himself, in that society, that other men will be moved by the exactness of his rendering, and if they are black men, grow strong through this moving, having seen their own strength, and weakness, and if they are white men, tremble, curse, and go mad, because they will be drenched with the filth of their evil.
** Amiri Baraka, Negro Digest, vol. 14, no. 6 (April 1965), p. 65
* African-American artists has greatly enriched our quality of life and created one of our Nation's most treasured art forms. As universal and original expressions of the human experience, their body of work, both past and present, entertains, inspires, and thrills countless people around the world.

# African-American men

African-American men, also referred to as Black men, are American males of full or partial Black or sub-Saharan African descent.

## Quotes

* Ironically, the imperialist white-supremacist capitalist state, which claimed the black family would be healthier if black men headed households, had no difficult taking men away from households and sending them far away from families to wage war, to sacrifice their lives for a country that was denying them full citizenship. The Moynihan Report did not create gender warfare in black life; it simply validated the sexist beliefs of many African-American men and to a grave extent legitimized their efforts to subjugate black females.

# Africa Addio

Africa Addio is a famed 1966 Italian documentary film about the end of the colonial era in Africa. The film was released under the names Africa Blood and Guts in the USA (which was only half of the entire film) and Farewell Africa in the UK.

## Narrator

* The Africa of the great explorers, the huge land of hunting and adventure adored by entire generations of children, has disappeared forever. To that age-old Africa, swept away and destroyed by the tremendous speed of progress, we have said farewell. The devastation, the slaughter, the massacres which we assisted belong to a new Africa– one which if it emerges from its ruins to be more modern, more rational, more functional, more conscious- will be unrecognizable and Africa will rise again upon the tombs of a few white men, millions of black men, and upon the immense graveyards that were once its game reserves. The endeavour is so modern and recent that there is no room to discuss it at the moral level. The purpose of this film is only to bid farewell to the old Africa that is dying and entrust to history the documentation of its agony.
* They're all ex-something: ex-anti-guerrilla fighters from French Algeria, British Malaysia, Borneo or Kenya, ex-SS officers from Germany, ex-CIA pilots from Cuba, ex-farmers from Kenya, ex-residents of the Sudan, Egypt, Tanganyika, ex-students from South Africa and Southern Rhodesia.
* At the end of the Ice Age, a warm current broke this little colony of penguins off of the glaciers of the south and carried them here on huge rafts of ice that melted in the sun. Isolated and without the possibility of returning to their original homeland, they have for centuries been strangers in a strange land that is becoming more and more heated and hostile toward them surrounded by a sea that grows higher and more and more filled with rage. Perhaps a little peace will descend upon these waters sooner or later, before a wave stronger than the others tears them away forever from this last rock that forms the geographic end of the Dark Continent.

# Breast augmentation

Quotes about breast augmentation.
* — It's a shame! – What? – Breast augmentation: you only gave a girl as beautiful as that a third size breast! Too bad... – I tried not to overdo it, otherwise I would have had to put a counterweight behind it! (Jarod the Chameleon)
* I do a lot of breast augmentation, but I also undo a lot of it. Women come back to me a year, two years after having had the surgery and are often very unhappy with having made that decision. But today you saw me give a lady a very big butt and it doesn't bother me one bit, because I know for a fact that she didn't do it for a pushy boyfriend, she didn't do it for someone else, she did it for himself. (Grey's Anatomy)
* – Have you moved a splenectomy for a breast augmentation? – And you want to condemn a woman to being looked at by men always and only in the face? (Dr. House - Medical Division)
* Fake boobs are like Nazis: they don't laugh, they don't dance. They are always just tough and at attention. (Mrs. Doubtfire)
* – What demon pushes a person of your age to commit such a massacre?! You still don't know what your body will become! It is an insult to nature as well as a constant distraction! I can't stop looking at them and even talking to them! Do you understand?! – I just wanted to make myself noticed more. I can't understand what the problem is. – The problem is that a person who gets pumped up like a tire to feel good about himself doesn't have the self-esteem to be my head cheerleader. Quinn will take your place. – What? But... – Miss Mongolfiere, you have been relegated to the base of the pyramid, so in the event of a fall your so-called airbags will protect the team from bruises. Now take back your lush triumph of fruit and stay away from my office. (Glee)
