Top 5 quotes from James Arthur Baldwin
"Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them."

"I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain."
"People who treat other people as less than human must not be surprised when the bread they have cast on the waters comes floating back to them, poisoned."
"Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced."
