Quotes taken from the authors in 1998

What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life.

Leo Buscaglia

I have a very strong feeling that the opposite of love is not hate - it's apathy. It's not giving a damn.

Leo Buscaglia

Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.

Leo Buscaglia

Love is always bestowed as a gift - freely, willingly and without expectation. We don't love to be loved; we love to love.

Leo Buscaglia

I believe that you control your destiny, that you can be what you want to be. You can also stop and say, 'No, I won't do it, I won't behave his way anymore. I'm lonely and I need people around me, maybe I have to change my methods of behaving,' and then you do it.

Leo Buscaglia

John Henrik Clarke

I understood that my family was rich in love but would probably never own the land my father, John, dreamed of owning. My mother, Willie Ella Mays Clarke, was a washerwoman for poor white folks in the area of Columbus, Georgia where the writer Carson McCullers once lived.

John Henrik Clarke

Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammad's message made a whole lot of people feel whole again, human being again. Some of them came out and found a new meaning to their manhood and their womanhood.

John Henrik Clarke

Anytime someone says your God is ugly and you release your God and join their God, there is no hope for your freedom until you once more believe in your own concept of the 'deity.'

John Henrik Clarke

I have walked majestically with kings and queens and presidents and other heads of states.

John Henrik Clarke

I've always overworked in the weight room. I love working with weights. I knew they'd give me the strength I needed.

Florance Griffith Joyner

The main reason I wanted to be successful was to get out of the ghetto. My parents helped direct my path.

Florance Griffith Joyner

I used to be teased for the way I wore my hair at school. I used to do things like wear a different-colored sock on each leg.

Florance Griffith Joyner

Conventional is not for me. I like things that are uniquely Flo. I like being different.

Florance Griffith Joyner

If you want to run as fast as the men, you've got to train like the men.
