James A. Baldwin
-
Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.
-
There is never time in the future in which we will work out our salvation. The challenge is in the moment the time is always now.
-
The future is like heaven, everyone exalts it, but no one wants to go there now.
-
Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.
-
People are trapped in history and history is trapped in them.
