• If you ask me, it'd be a little short of disastrous for us to discover a source of clean, cheap, abundant energy because of what we would do with it. We ought to be looking for energy sources that are adequate for our needs, but that won't give us the excesses of concentrated energy with which we could do mischief to the earth or to each other.

• People sometimes ask me if I would not give anything to be white, I answer, in the words of the song, most emphatically, 'No.'  How do I know what I might be if I were a white man?  I might be a sand-hog, burrowing away and losing my health for $8 a day.  I might be a street-car conductor at $12 or $15 a week.  There is many a white man less fortunate and less well equipped than I am.  In fact, I have never been able to discover that there was anything disgraceful in being a colored man.  But I have often found it inconvenient - in America.

• I think like a genius, I write like a distinguished author, and I speak like a child.... My hemmings and hawings over the telephone cause long-distance callers to switch from their native English to pathetic French. At parties, if I attempt to entertain people with a good story, I have to go back to every other sentence for oral erasures and inserts.... In these circumstances nobody should ask me to submit to an interview if by "interview" a chat between two normal human beings is implied.
