Toni Morrison
“The function of freedom is to free someone else.”
“You wanna fly, you got to give up the thing that weighs you down.”
“If you surrendered to the air, you could ride it.”
“Definitions belong to the definers, not the defined.”
“Freeing yourself was one thing, claiming ownership of that freed self was another.”
“If there is a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.”
