I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired.

I am sick and tired of being sick and tired.

People have got to get together and work together. I'm tired of the kind of oppression that white people have inflicted on us and are still trying to inflict.

What was the point of being scared? The only thing they could do to me was kill me and it seemed like they'd been trying to do that a little bit at a time ever since I could remember.

If the white man gives you anything - just remember when he gets ready he will take it right back. We have to take for ourselves.

With the people, for the people, by the people. I crack up when I hear it; I say, with the handful, for the handful, by the handful, cause that's what really happens.
