The larger meaning here is that mainstream journalists simply cannot talk about things that the two parties agree on; this is the black hole of American politics.
Michael Pollan

I am not a black artist, I am an artist.
Jean-Michel Basquiat

And all of this, all these physical aspects of painting at that time excited me very much. You could do a picture in just black and white. I mean all the things, whether you're soliciting permission or not, do give you permission.
Robert Rauschenberg

I know what's good for me. I can't play black or gray. I can't be a villain or anything close to one. I have to play white.
Alan Ladd

We're trying to have the band create something beautiful that hopefully one day, 20 years from now, can be picked up by a kid and hopefully have the same effect that Neil Young had on me, or Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath.
Ville Valo

Invention flags, his brain goes muddy, and black despair succeeds brown study.
William Congreve

Another Black Label motto. That's what I think life is. It's just another bridge to cross. You ask no questions. Whatever work it is you gotta do, you gotta go over it, under it, through it, around it, to do it.
Zakk Wylde

Black people should have recognition for themselves and their backgrounds and their relationships with other people in the world and thus lose some of their alienation. This museum has certainly stood for that in this town.

That's why for Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society the colors are black and white. There are no gray issues. Life is black and it's white. There's no in-between.

It's pure Black Label. It's about violence and booze. That's all it is. There is no plan.
Zakk Wylde

Nina Simone

I think the rich are too rich and the poor are too poor. I don't think the black people are going to rise at all; I think most of them are going to die.
Nina Simone

To most white people, jazz means black and jazz means dirt, and that's not what I play. I play black classical music.
Nina Simone

From the beginning, it has been a no-no for a black man to touch a white woman.
Nina Simone

Jazz is a white term to define black people. My music is black classical music.
Nina Simone

I was the only Black person on the set. It was unusual for me to be in a circumstance in which every move I made was tantamount to representation of 18 million people.
Sidney Poitier

In the history of the treatment of depression, there was the dunking stool, purging of the bowels of black bile, hoses, attempts to shock the patient. All of these represent hatred or aggression towards what depression represents in the patient.
James Hillman

Then as I got older, I always gravitated towards the hard stuff, Born To Be Wild, then Black Sabbath.
