Additional quotes by Gwendolyn Brooks

This is the urgency: Live!
And have your blooming in the noise of the whirlwind.

It is a real chill out,
The genuine thing.
I am not deceived, I do not think it is still summer
Because sun stays and birds continue to sing.

I hold my honey and I store my bread
In little jars and cabinets of my will.
I label clearly, and each latch and lid
I bid, Be firm till I return from hell.
I am very hungry. I am incomplete.
And none can tell when I may dine again.

Very early in life I became fascinated with the wonders language can achieve. And I began playing with words. - Gwendolyn Brooks
