You Know The Scripture Says "be Not Deceived For God Is Not Mocked; Whatsoever A Man Sow That Shall He Also Reap." And One Day, I Don't Know How They're Going To Get It, But They're Going To Get Some Of It Back. They Are Scared To Death And Are More Afraid Now Than We Are.

[my Mother] Tried So Hard To Make Life Easy For Us. Those Are The Things That Forced Me To Try To Do Something Different And When This Movement Came To Mississippi I Still Feel It Is One Of The Greatest Things That Ever Happened Because Only A Person Living In The State Of Mississippi Knows What It Is Like To Suffer; Knows What It Is Like To Be Hungry; Knows What It Is Like To Have No Clothing To Wear.

But We Didn't Think When We Got There That We Would Meet People, That Actually The Other Leaders Of The Movement Would Differ With What We Felt Was Right.

I Guess If I'd Had Any Sense, I'd Have Been A Little Scared [to Register To Vote] - But What Was The Point Of Being Scared? The Only Thing They Could Do Was Kill Me, And It Kinda Seemed Like They'd Been Trying To Do That A Little Bit At A Time Since I Could Remember.
