COLEMAN YOUNG

Courage is one step ahead of fear.

Racism is like high blood pressure—the person who has it doesn’t know he has it until he drops over with a God damned stroke. There are no symptoms of racism. The victim of racism is in a much better position to tell you whether or not you’re a racist than you are.

I've learned over a period of years there are setbacks when you come up against the immovable object; sometimes the object doesn't move.

You can't look forward and backward at the same time.

We need to dream big dreams, propose grandoise means if we are to recapture the excitement, the vibrancy, and pride we once had.

Swearing is an art form. You can express yourself much more exactly, much more succinctly, with properly used curse words.

We must take the profit out of prejudice.

There is no brilliant single stroke that is going to transform the water into wine or straw into gold.
