Ta-Nehisi Coates Quotes
On The Last Day Of Her Visit I Drove Your Grandmother To The Airport. Your Mother Was Her Only Child, As You Are My Only Child, And Having Watched You Grow I Know That Nothing Could Possibly Be More Precious To Her. She Said To Me, "You Take Care Of My Daughter."
When She Got Out Of The Car My World Had Shifted. I Felt That I Had Crossed Some Threshold Out Of The Foyer Of My Life And Into The Living Room. Everything That Was The Past Seemed To Be Another Life. There Was Before You And Then There Was After And In This After You Were The God I'd Never Had. I Submitted Before Your Needs And I Knew Then That I Must Survive For Something More Than Survival's Sake. I Must Survive For You.
