"Many would say we've progressed, but there are many problems that go unaddressed. We still cut 'cane, but instead of sugar, it's coke. We think the law is unfair, yet sell illegal drugs to our own folk. Chains kept us down and whips broke our wills; now, chains mean we're 'down,' whips get us around and also get us killed. Blaxploitation was once an erroneous display of our strife; now it's our way of life..."-A. Lewis
"America only told me that I have an opportunity. Society told me I wouldn't. Racism told me I couldn't. My peers told me I shouldn't. Television said it would happen without effort, and to depend on what I see. Radio told me opinions are facts, and to depend on what I hear. The Internet says whatever anyone wants it to. The message is clear: seek guidance within; follow the faith placed in me. The soul knows best."-A. Lewis
"With every second that passes by, the hands of time count the ways that I love you. Just as time has no beginning or end, neither do my feelings for you. The sun rises over my desires and sets beyond my fulfillment; my days are spent, no matter what may happen, seeing my biggest dream come true, which would be you. I'm the best thing to ever happen to you simply out of affectionate reciprocity..."-A. Lewis
"If I could, I'd place a wish on you. Every time you walk by, you're like a shooting star...and I just really want to get to know who you really are. Love may or may not take us really far, but it'd be better than you fighting what you feel; must we really spar? I want to be the one you let in. Feelings aren't really one way streets, but if you kill my chances before our causeways meet, I guess it'll be a dead end.."-A. Lewis
"Failure is progressive when taken as a lesson. No matter how many times someone fails, the lessons learned from each will bring the individual that much closer to success. Failure is only an issue when it is the result of negligence on the individual's part, whether it be from laziness, ignorance, etc. As much as it is progressive, it can also can be a point of damming; without learning, failure becomes a dead end."-A. Lewis
"As the bright yellow sun glazes the azure sky with coats of warmth and sprinkles alimentary heat on the flora, vibrant hues of verdure emerge. Is this not Mother Nature becoming green with envy at the sight of you? The renewed Springtime sunlight cascades off of your skin; you gleam as though freshly reborn out of the purest babbling rainforest brook of beauty."-A. Lewis
"What women don't understand is that putting up a wall isn't even HALF as destructive as the mindset necessary to do so. Putting up a wall means that you believe that there are more hurtful men out there than good ones. Any guy trying to CLIMB the wall will always fit what you're afraid of; walls manifest out of the fear of the unknown. Out of familiarity, you'll only LET IN the same guys that have been hurting you."-A. Lewis
