Additional quotes by Langston Hughes

Looks like what drives me crazy
Don't have no effect on you — But I'm gonna keep on at it
Till it drives you crazy, too.

Justice

That Justice is a blind goddess
Is a thing to which we black are wise:
Her bandage hides two festering sores
That once perhaps were eyes.

The Dream Keeper

Bring me all of your dreams,
You dreamer,
Bring me all your
Heart melodies
That I may wrap them
In a blue cloud-cloth
Away from the too-rough fingers
Of the world.
