The man who interprets Nature is always held in great honor.
Zora Neale Hurston
Women forget all the things they don't want to remember, and remember everything they don't want to forget.
Zora Neale Hurston
An envious heart makes a treacherous ear.
Zora Neale Hurston
Now they got to look into me loving Tea Cake and see whether it was done right or not! They don't know if life is a mess of corn-meal dumplings, and if love is a bed-quilt!
Zora Neale Hurston
A thing is mighty big when time and distance cannot shrink it.
Zora Neale Hurston

Two things everybody's got tuh do fuh theyselves. They got tuh go tuh God, and they got tuh find out about livin' fuh theyselves.
Zora Neale Hurston

Zora Neale Hurston
Sweat, sweat, sweat! Work and sweat, cry and sweat, pray and sweat!
Zora Neale Hurston
The whole matter revolves around the self-respect of my people. How much satisfaction can I get from a court order for somebody toassociate with me who does not wish me near them?
Zora Neale Hurston
Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.
Zora Neale Hurston
Like the dead-seeming, cold rocks, I have memories within that came out of the material that went to make me. Time and place have had their say.
Zora Neale Hurston
They bowed down to him rather, because he was all of these things, and then again he was all of these things because the town bowed down.
Zora Neale Hurston
It would be against all nature for all the Negroes to be either at the bottom, top, or in between. We will go where the internal drive carries us like everybody else. It is up to the individual.
Zora Neale Hurston
The game of keeping what one has is never so exciting as the game of getting.
Zora Neale Hurston
There's two things everybody got to find out for themselves: they got to find out about love, and they got to find out about living. Now, love is like the sea. It's a moving thing. And it's different on every shore. And living... well... There are years that ask questions and years that answer.
