Charles Dickens Quotes
The receptive attitude enables one mind to fix itself to another as by spiritual grappling-irons.

Prince is extremely soulful, but he can get real rock-'n'-rollish. So can Lenny Kravitz. Lenny's real soulful but he's got that rock with him, too. On the whole, I guess black folks ain't trying to handle rock-'n'-roll, really.
