Additional quotes by Chinua Achebe

Women and music should not be dated.

Our humanity is contingent on the humanity of our fellows. No person or group can be human alone. We rise above the animal together, or not at all. If we learned that lesson even this late in the day, we would have taken a truly millennial step forward.

We had all accepted things from white skins that none of us would have brooked from our own people.

The guilty suffers; the sufferer is guilty. As for the righteous, those whose arms are straight, they will always prosper! - Chinua Achebe
