Cecil Williams Quotes
I don't go and study other folks. I come from where I came from, as a kid, in the little black church I grew up in. And some of the things they did I rejected, because I could see that it was a manipulation and an exaggeration. My struggle is never to fool folks; to keep it authentic - who we are and who we are becoming - rather than to mimic or to translate what others do into my own terms.

In the 360-degree battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan, women have served honorably and fought valiantly.
