John C. Maxwell

“That's just how white folks will do you. It wasn't merely the cruelty involved; I was learning that black people could be mean and then some.

Or at least thought you deserved of their scorn.”
Barack Obama

The closer you live to God, the smaller everything else appears.”
Rick Warren

They were more than satisfied, they were relieved — such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn’t seem angry all the time.”
Barack Obama

“Preparing for the future must begin, as always, with our children. We need to set for them new and more rigorous goals.”
