Text Quotes
Our collective freedom... depends on our ability to defend the rights of others  (Walter Mosley Quotes) A man who is already insane was frightening enough, but when he goes crazy  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Writing is almost a place of dreams for me, and I don’t have to give up anything to do it  (Walter Mosley Quotes) I like to read either in motion or in water... I am happiest reading in the bathtub  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Love makes you blind to your own survival. And if it doesn’t then it’s not love at all  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Freedom is a state of mind, I said wondering where I’d heard it before, not a state of being. We are all slaves to gravity and morality and the vicissitudes of nature. Our genes govern us much more than we’d like to think. Our bodies can not know absolute freedom but our minds can, can at least try  (Walter Mosley Quotes) The fear in my heart was like in one of those dreams where you try to run but you can’t do it, you can’t run because the fear is an anchor in your chest  (Walter Mosley Quotes) This is all you have to do. Sit down once a day to the novel and start working without internal criticism, without debilitating expectations, without the need to look at your words as if they were already printed and bound. The beginning is only a draft. Drafts are imperfect by definition  (Walter Mosley Quotes) There’s a resistance for people to talk about things that make them feel guilty. When natural disasters happen, it’s easier not to feel guilty about it  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Love, as the poet says, is like the spring. It grows on you and seduces you slowly and gently, but it holds tight like the roots of a tree. You don’t know until you’re ready to go that you can’t move, that you would have to mutilate yourself in order to be free. That’s the feeling. It doesn’t last, at least it doesn’t have to. But it holds on like a steel claw in your chest. Even if the tree dies, the roots cling to you. I’ve seen men and women give up everything for love that once was  (Walter Mosley Quotes) A man’s bookcase will tell you everything you’ll ever need to know about him  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Many and most moments go by with us hardly aware of their passage. But love and hate and fear cause time to snag you, to drag you down like a spider’s web holding fast to a doomed fly’s wings. And when you’re caught like that you’re aware of every moment and movement and nuance  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Every day that we wake up is a good day. Every breath that we take is filled with hope for a better day. Every word that we speak is a chance to change what is bad into something good  (Walter Mosley Quotes) The first thing you have to know about writing is that it is something you must do everyday. There are two reasons for this rule: Getting the work done and connecting with your unconscious mind  (Walter Mosley Quotes) They want to hold on to you and your people. They have isolated the ones who might grow powerful and overthrow their debauched reign  (Walter Mosley Quotes) I hit him more times than necessary but by then my actions were mostly chemical, like a soldier ant or a teenager in love  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Not for the first time in my life I had made it to the top. For some reason this made me hanker for a chili dog with chopped onions under a blanket of processed American cheese  (Walter Mosley Quotes) There are as many kinds of love as there are flowers and bugs put together but men and women and their needs are all the same  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Black men of our day were never told, The sky's the limit... We could aspire to Joe Louis but never Henry Ford  (Walter Mosley Quotes) I have to agree that most people in America read a kind of a fiction which is not of a high literary calibre. People read for entertainment  (Walter Mosley Quotes) The life most of us live are lives we are forced to live by immediate needs, influences, and pressures  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Mouse was the truest friend I ever had. And if there is such a thing as true evil, he was that too  (Walter Mosley Quotes) We are not trapped or locked up in these bones. No, no. We are free to change. And love changes us. And if we can love one another, we can break open the sky  (Walter Mosley Quotes) I think it's some kind of meeting of energies that causes what we see, and that part of those energies emanate from our life forces, our minds  (Walter Mosley Quotes) If you want to be a writer, you have to write every day... You don't go to a well once but daily. You don't skip a child's breakfast or forget to wake up in the morning  (Walter Mosley Quotes) A man once told me that you step out of your door in the morning, and you are already in trouble. The only question is are you on top of that trouble or not?  (Walter Mosley Quotes) When I went to school, there were no Black philosophers, at least none that I was aware of, who were recognized by Western universities  (Walter Mosley Quotes) My father cared about the world he lived in, and so he admitted his confusion about his place in America because he didn't want me to make the same mistake in my life  (Walter Mosley Quotes) Losing my parents really set me adrift in more ways than one. It's not just losing them. It's losing the possibility of family  (Walter Mosley Quotes) I've written a lot of really good books. Now we'll see if I can write any more good books. I mean there's a chance I won't, but I'm going to try  (Walter Mosley Quotes)
