There are a lot of ways an oppressed people can rise. One way to rise is to study, to be smarter than your oppressor.

And the most enduring contributions made to civilization have not been made by brawn, they have been made by brain.
Benjamin Hooks

Fifty million Americans have dementia and other brain illnesses.

Chaka Fattah -
All the information in the universe, plus several bits from other dimensions that I'm still trying to sort out, have just been mainlined into my nervous system.

Is it possible this triviality is a code of some sort? the Brain wondered. But how could it be ... unless there's more to these emotional inconsequentials and this talk of a God than appears on the surface? The Brain had begun its career in logics as a pragmatic atheist.

Empress of the Universe would be way too much work. I'd have to wear fancy clothes, probably including lady shoes with pointed toes, and could no longer slouch into the study in PJs and slippers.

I don't record (any type of genre of music) that I didn't hear in my family's living room by the time I was 10. It just is my rule that I don't break because ... I can't do it authentically ... I really think that you're just hard-wiring (synapses) in your brain up until the age of maybe 12 or 10, and there are certain things you can't learn in an authentic way after that.
Linda Ronstadt
