NIKKI GIOVANNI
American author and poet
(1943 - )

Sacred cows make very poor gladiators.
      - [Idols]

We love because it's the only true adventure.
      - [Love]

Mistakes are a fact of life. It is the response to errors that counts.
      - Black Feeling/Black Talk/Black Judgment--Of Liberation
         (st. 16) [Mistake]

show me someone not full of herself and i'll show
  you a hungry person
      - Poem for a Lady Whose Voice I Like
        [Humility]

I love you
  because the Earth turns round the sun
    because the North wind blows north
      sometimes
        because the Pope is Catholic
          and most Rabbis Jewish
            because winters flow into springs
              and the air clears after a storm
      - Resignation [Love]
