Some Bell Hooks's quotes. Goto "Bell Hooks's quotation" section for more.Yesterday I was thinking about the whole idea of genius and creative people, and the notion that if you create some magical art, somehow that exempts you from having to pay attention to the small things.
Tags: Art, Small, ThinkingI feel like there is always something trying to pull us back into sleep, that there is this sort of seductive quality in all the hedonistic pleasures that pull on us.
Tags: Quality, Sleep, TryingSome people act as though art that is for a mass audience is not good art, and I think this has been a very negative thing. I know that I have wanted very much to write books that are accessible to the widest audience possible.
Tags: Art, Good, NegativeWe judge on the basis of what somebody looks like, skin color, whether we think they're beautiful or not. That space on the Internet allows you to converse with somebody with none of those things involved.
Tags: Beautiful, Judge, WhetherWhat had begun as a movement to free all black people from racist oppression became a movement with its primary goal the establishment of black male patriarchy.
Tags: Black, Free, GoalWhat's really sad is that so many young women between the ages of 16 and 25 are ignorant and they already believe that women get the same pay as men. They don't even really understand that equality hasn't happened with the pay force.
Tags: Equality, Men, WomenWhy is it that many contemporary male thinkers, especially men of color, repudiate the imperialist legacy of Columbus but affirm dimensions of that legacy by their refusal to repudiate patriarchy?
Tags: Color, Men, WhyFor me, forgiveness and compassion are always linked: how do we hold people accountable for wrongdoing and yet at the same time remain in touch with their humanity enough to believe in their capacity to be transformed?
Tags: Enough, Humanity, TimeIt's in the act of having to do things that you don't want to that you learn something about moving past the self. Past the ego.
Tags: Moving, Past, SelfI will not have my life narrowed down. I will not bow down to somebody else's whim or to someone else's ignorance.
Tags: Ignorance, Life, SomeoneI began writing a book on love because I felt that the United States is moving away from love.
Tags: Book, Love, MovingI have created a life style that supports contemplation, service to words.
Tags: Life, Service, WordsWhen we drop fear, we can draw nearer to people, we can draw nearer to the earth, we can draw nearer to all the heavenly creatures that surround us.
Tags: Draw, Earth, FearSince loving is about knowing, we have more meaningful love relationships when we know each other and it takes time to know each other.
Tags: Knowing, Love, TimeThe political core of any movement for freedom in the society has to have the political imperative to protect free speech.
Tags: Freedom, Political, SocietyI have been thinking about the notion of perfect love as being without fear, and what that means for us in a world that's becoming increasingly xenophobic, tortured by fundamentalism and nationalism.
Tags: Fear, Love, ThinkingBut love is really more of an interactive process. It's about what we do not just what we feel. It's a verb, not a noun.
