John Steinbeck Birthday

♥♥

And this I believe: that the free, exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world. And this I would fight for: the freedom of the mind to take any direction it wishes, undirected. And this I must fight against: any religion, or government which limits or destroys the individual.
This is what I am and what I am about.

- John Steinbeck -
from East of Eden

February 27, 1902 - December 20, 1968

yessssssssssssssssssssssssss !!!!!

... one must rise
And walk along the stretch of time,
Look at the flowers, hear the enigma.
One must run until the end of being ...
One must sit close to the unfolding,
Some place between rapture and illumination.

Share My World by Georgia D. Johnson

Share My World

I Shall rebuild my world today
Without a sob or sigh,
Assembling and securing it
Ere fleeting time deny.

I shall rebuild my shattered world
More wisely than before,
Shall fashion it with faith and prayer
And love shall be the door.

And when I have rebuilt my world
Uncircumscribed and free
I shall invite all humankind
To share my world with me.

- Georgia Douglas Johnson -

September 10, 1880 - May 14, 1966


American poet, one of the earliest African-American female playwrights and a member of the Harlem Renaissance, 
born in Atlanta, Georgia.
