Brown Quotes - Page 6

• I can't remember exactly the first thing I wrote, but one of the stories, was about a pilot whose plane crashed on a desert island, and the only other life on the island was a brown cow with yellow spots. The cow had... to survive, had taught itself to eat and get nutriments from sand. I guess, I've always been interested in adaptability and taking whatever life hands you and running with it.

• You're not going to have the police force representing the black and brown community, if they've spent the last 30 years busting every son and daughter and father and mother for every piddling drug offense that they've ever done, thus creating a mistrust in the community. But at the same time, you should be able to talk about abuses of power, and you should be able to talk about police brutality and what, in some cases, is as far as I'm concerned, outright murder and outright loss of justice without the police organization targeting you in the way that they have done me.

• You should be able to criticize civil servants for what you think is wrongdoing without being painted as a cop-hater. I don't feel the police are all corrupt, however I do feel they are suffering from institutional racism and there needs to be a top-to-bottom examination of the way they practice and the way they criminalize young black and brown males. The fact that they seem to have backed off from it seems to suggest they realize they overreacted on me and it looks bad.

• Michael Jordan was blessed by God to play basketball and Roger Brown was the closet person to him I ever saw. I don't say that lightly. Roger was phenomenal. There was nothing he couldn't do. He was so quick he would trick people blind - I even saw him miss layups because he was laughing so hard at what he had just done to someone.

• Mi sueño de niño era tocar con un bajista como Ray Brown, que tocaba con el Oscar Peterson Trio. La sensación que me producía escuchar su trabajo era casi carnal, así que tocar para él fue algo increíble para mí.

• Resulta que los mayas tenían razón cuando predijeron que el mundo se acabaría en 2012. Era sólo un mundo selecto: el universo del G.O.P. de blancos arrogantes, estirados, con derechos, mandones y retrógrados. [...] En lugar de viruela, plagas, sequías y conquistadores, el declive republicano se deberá a una obstinada negativa a adaptarse a un mundo en el que cuentan los pobres y los enfermos y los negros y los morenos y las mujeres y los homosexuales.

• I got to college and saw all of my friends going to these other schools and thought, 'You know, college is just a blank slate.' And I had an opportunity to go to different schools, but I chose Brown because it was unique and allowed you to be yourself as an individual and like I said, it's a blank slate.

• La administración Bush ha proporcionado ya tres casos prácticos de arrogancia, aislamiento y destructividad: Michael Brown durante el huracán Katrina, el embajador Jerry Bremer en Bagdad y el secretario Paulson en el Tesoro. Es un legado trágico y muy caro. Ningún conservador y ningún republicano debería dudar de lo mucho que ha perjudicado a nuestra causa y a nuestro partido.

• I think of the described dynamics as a fluid negotiation. I don't think these specific interactions can happen to the black or brown body without the white body. And there are ways in which, if you say, "Oh, this happened to me," then the white body can say, "Well, it happened to her and it has nothing to do with me." But if it says "you," that you is an apparent part of the encounter.

• Los blancos ricos llegan a un país pobre para divertirse en su tiempo libre, son atendidos por negros y morenos y viven con relativa -o absoluta- comodidad. Sin embargo, en el agua, la situación puede cambiar radicalmente. Los chavales locales aprenden a surfear, conocen las rompientes y se llevan la mayoría o todas las mejores olas, mal que les pese a los turistas.

• Eventually as a teenager, I was pulled up on stage by James Brown's saxophone player, Maceo Parker, during one of his concerts and scatted on his stage for 20 minutes. After I was done, Maceo's bass player got down on one knee as if he were proposing, took a string off of his bass guitar and coiled it up around my ring finger. He hushed the crowd and said into the microphone, "Wendy, from this day forward you are married to music. You have a gift from God. You must devote your life to using this gift or else you will deprive the world of something so special." I got the chills.

• One of the songs that stayed in my head that I really considered a lot was an old folk song called 'John Brown' - not the abolitionist John Brown, but the one that Bob Dylan has covered and sung before. It's about a boy coming home from the Civil War, or maybe World War I even, and about his Mother seeing him all destroyed.
