Play the game, but don't believe in it. - Ralph Ellison

They can laugh, but they can't deny us. They can curse and kill us, but they can't destroy us. This land is ours because we come out of it, we bled in it, our tears watered it, we fertilized it with our dead. So the more of us they destroy, the more it becomes filled with the spirit of our redemption.

All it takes to get along in this here man's town is a little shit, grit, and mother-wit.

To see around corners is enough (that is not unusual when you are invisible). But to hear around them is too much; it inhibits action.
