I never doubted my ability, but when you hear all your life you're inferior, it makes you wonder if the other guys have something you've never seen before. If they do, I'm still looking for it. - Hank Aaron (Henry Louis Aaron), 1992
I'm not comfortable being preachy, but more people need to start spending as much time in the library as they do on the basketball court. If they took the idea that they could escape poverty through education, I think it would make a more basic and long-lasting change in the way things happen. What we need are positive, realistic goals and the willingness to work. Hard work and practical goals. - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (Ferdinand Lewis Alcindor, Jr.), 1990
You can't win unless you learn how to lose. - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, 1990

Only those who truly love and who are truly strong can sustain their lives as a dream. You dwell in your own enchantment. Life throws stones at you, but your love and your dream change those stones into the flowers of discovery. Even if you lose, or are defeated by things, your triumph will always be exemplary. And if no one knows it, then there are places that do. People like you enrich the dreams of the worlds, and it is dreams that create history. People like you are unknowing transformers of things, protected by your own fairy-tale, by love. - Ben Okri
Politics is the art of the possible; creativity is the art of the impossible. - Ben Okri
Stories serve the purpose of consolidating whatever gains people or their leaders have made or imagine they have made in their existing journey thorough the world. - Chinua Achebe
The greatest religions convert the world through stories. - Ben Okri
Until you understand what poverty can do to the soul, it is hard to comprehend what happened in Ogoni between 1913 and 1994. Poverty can, at its best, be the foundation of generosity and a devotion to an idea that is inspiring. But, at its worst, it can corrupt minds, harden hearts and deaden the appetite for the truth. – Ken Wiwa
Nigeria is what it is because its leaders are not what they should be. - Chinua Achebe
