Thinking Quotes

Black people are just constantly immature in their thinking, undisciplined, and we suffer as a people. This is not about race in the sense that black people got to get something better than whites or Latinos or Asians.

Man must become comfortable in flowing from one role to another, one set of values to another, one life to another.
