-- "It is education that has altered my life. Carried me far."

-- "To admit the change in my life I must speak of years as a student, of losses, of gains."

-- "In singing the praise of my lower-class past, I remind myself of my separation from that past, bring memory to silence. . . . I remember what was so grievously lost to define what was necessarily gained."
