Soap: Rory Breaker? That psychotic black dwarf with an Afro? Tom: That would be the same man, yes.
Children: [singing] Just you wait, it won't be long. The man in black will soon be here. With his cleaver's blade so true. He'll make mincemeat out of YOU!
Caine: Now O-Dog was the craziest nigga alive. America's nightmare. Young, black, and didn't give a fuck.
[Antonius Block lets Death choose which chess pieces to play] Antonius Block: You drew black. Death: Appropriate, don't you think?
[Rose is drinking black beer, Jack looks at her funny] Rose: What? Do you think a first class girl can't drink?
Vivian Cash: You can't wear black. It looks like you're going to a funeral. Johnny Cash: Maybe I am...
Vivian Cash: John, whats with the black? You look like you're goin' to a funeral! Johnny Cash: Maybe I am...
Rorschach: Once a man has seen society's black underbelly, he can never turn his back on it. Never pretend, like you do, that it doesn't exist.
I was told by the general manager that a white player had received a higher raise than me. Because white people required more money to live than black people. That is why I wasn't going to get a raise.
The pledge drive has everything going against it as broadcasting. It's repetitive. It's ad-libbed by people who can't ad-lib. It's about asking for money, which is something nobody wants to hear, even from their own relatives.

I've been blessed with the opportunity to express the views of black people who otherwise don't have access to power and the media. I have to take advantage of that while I'm still bankable.
I didn't see how wearing prosthetics was quite so different from being born with flaming red hair in a crowd of black-haired babies, or being of a different religion from that of every other child in your area.
Religion looms as large as an elephant in the United States, to the point that being nonreligious is about the biggest handicap a politician running for office can have, bigger than being gay, unmarried, thrice married, or black.
