W. E. B. Du Bois Zitate

For most people, it is enough for the world to know that they aspire. The world does not ask what their aspirations are, trusting that those aspirations are for the best and greatest things. But with regard to the Negroes in America, there is a feeling that their aspirations in some way are not consistent with the great ideals.

Für die meisten Menschen reicht es aus, dass die Welt weiß, dass sie danach streben. Die Welt fragt nicht nach ihren Bestrebungen und vertraut darauf, dass diese Bestrebungen für die besten und größten Dinge sind. Aber in Bezug auf die Neger in Amerika besteht das Gefühl, dass ihre Bestrebungen in gewisser Weise nicht mit den großen Idealen übereinstimmen.

Well I think that what we're seeing now is that the people feel like they, the people in Congress don't have their consent to govern them. They keep doing things that are incredibly unpopular. And so when that happens, folks get angry.

Everybody has their role in the food world and what they choose to appreciate. I'm not a fine dining chef. I appreciate it. I think Thomas Keller is amazing. But I really like where I'm at; I like what I do. I like how it makes people feel.

It's great to hear from people who have been touched by these songs. It has been good to know that the Lord is using this in ways I am not even aware of.
