Copy Quote Text

I'm not a poster boy for misogyny and I don't think hip-hop should be either.

Bakari Kitwana

Hip-hop is a complex music and culture that has been reduced to a one-dimensional critique. Hip-hop's messages aren't all bad. Neither are they all good.

Bakari Kitwana

And just as you can find hip-hop lyrics beating up on all these groups, including young Black men themselves, the primary producers of the music, you can also find lyrics celebrating them.

Bakari Kitwana

Locally lived hip-hop culture that is giving many of America's youth the tool they need to survive and thrive in America, in the face of public policy that have written too many young people off.

Bakari Kitwana

Loving, hating, having expectations: all these are attachments. Attachment prevents the growth of one's true being.

Laozi Philosopher

Jealousy, that dragon which slays love under the pretence of keeping it alive.

Havelock Ellis Physician

Most people should be talking about how Floyd Mayweather is a great undefeated future Hall of Famer that's his own promoter and that works extremely hard to get to where he's at. Instead, all you hear is hate and jealous remarks from critics who criticize me and, you know, most of the time, the people that criticize me can't do what I can do.

Floyd Mayweather, Jr. Professional Boxer

If you erased New York, I hate to say it, if you erased Frankfurt, even London, the world would not have changed.

Nicolas Berggruen Investor

He feared me as many men fear women: because their mistresses (or their wives) understand them. They are scarcely adult, some men: they wish women to understand them, and to that end they tell them all their secrets; and then, when they are properly understood, they hate their women for understanding them.

Julian Barnes Writer

Nothing better forges a bond of love, friendship or respect than common hatred toward something.

Anton Chekhov Physician
