"Oh I say that's a shame. But my opponent says today is not the day for whites and coloureds to go to the same college, to share the same campus, to walk in the same classroom. Well, would you kindly tell me when is that day going to come? Is it going to come tomorrow? Is it going to come next week? In a hundred years? Never? No, the time for justice, the time for freedom and the time for equality is always, is always right now!"
The Little Prince (1943)
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Chapter Twenty-One: the little prince befriends the fox
"You are not at all like my rose," he said. "As yet you are nothing. No one has tamed you, and you have tamed no one. You are like my fox when I first knew him. He was only a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But I have made him my friend, and now he is unique in all the world."
"Goodbye," said the fox. "And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
"It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important."
Talk Talk Talk (2004)
The Ordinary Boys
Over The Counter Culture
Too much small talk leads to a small mind
So tell me what your views are
And I will tell you mine
Oh let it go
Tell me things I'd like to know
Frighten me, enlighten me, oh no
