Saul Williams
the greatest Americans have not been born yet they are waiting patiently for the past to die
Saul Williams
I surrendered my beliefs and found myself at the tree of life injecting my story into the veins of leaves only to find that stories like forests are subject to seasons
Saul Williams

Saul Williams
the anchor man thrown overboard has simply rooted us in history's repeating cycle
Saul Williams

Your library teacher would say, What happens to a generation that doesn't read the Classics? Me, I'm not your library teacher. But I have some of the same questions and concerns, you know?
Saul Williams
It's crazy when you see very little reflection between what's played on the radio and what people are talking about in the streets. It lets you know how far off we are from a real movement.
Saul Williams
