«How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn't love it.

There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.»

Black women have been opening doors for themselves and lighting their own cigarettes for a couple centuries in this country. Black women don't quibble about things that are not important.»
