Harriet Tubman
I've heard 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' read, and I tell you Mrs. Stowe's pen hasn't begun to paint what slavery is as I have seen it at the far South. I've seen de real thing, and I don't want to see it on no stage or in no theater.

A boy's best friend...Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process...The mind is like an iceberg, it floats...I do want to be able to benefit from my work...A man in the house is worth two in the street...Painting is by nature a luminous language...
