Richard Rodriguez Quotes
Most, I Loved James Baldwin's Essays. There Was To A Baldwin Essay A Metropolitan Elegance I Envied, A Refusal Of The Livid. In Baldwin I Found A Readiness To Rise To Prophetic Wrath, Something Like Those Ministers, And Yet, Once More, To Bend Down In Tenderness, To Call Grown Men And Women "baby" (a Whiff Of The Theater). Watching Baldwin On Television - I Will Always Consider The Fifties To Have Been A Sophisticated Time - Fixed For Me What Being A Writer Must Mean. Arching Eyebrows Intercepted Ironies, Parenthetically Declared Fouls; Mouthfuls Of Cigarette Smoke Shot Forth Ribbons Of Exactitude.
