Gil Scott-Heron Life Quotations

I have a novel that I can write. It's about three soldiers from Somalia. Some babies have been disappearing up on 144th Street, and I speculate later on what happened to them and how they might have been got back. These guys are dead, all three, and they have a chance in the afterlife to do something they should have done when they were alive.

Your life has to consist of more than 'Black people should unite.' You hope they do, but not twenty-four hours a day.
