Additional quotes by Langston Hughes

I asked you, baby,
If you understood-
You told me that you didn't,
But you thought you would.

I went down to the river,
I set down on the bank.
I tried to think but couldn't,
So I jumped in and sank.

Sometimes a crumb falls
From the tables of joy,
Sometimes a bone
Is flung.

To some people
Love is given,
To others
Only heaven.

Out of love, No regrets — Though the goodness Be wasted forever. Out of love, No regrets — Though the return Be never. - Langston Hughes
