James Baldwin Quotes

There Is A Blood-red Thunder All Around You, A Blinding Light Flashes From Time To Time, Voices Roar And Cease, Roar And Cease, You Are In The Grip Of An Unknowable Agony, It Is In Your Shoulders, Your Arms, Your Hands, Your Breath, An Intolerable Labor- And, No, It Is Not At All Like Approaching An Orgasm, An Orgasm Implying Relief, Even, Sometimes, However Desperately, Implying The Hope Of Love. Love And Death Are Connected, But Not In The Place I Was That Day.
