More quotes by Zora Neale Hurston
Africa has her mouth on Moses.
Zora Neale Hurston
Everybody has some special road of thought along which they travel when they are alone to themselves. And his road of thought is what makes every man what he is.
Zora Neale Hurston
If you want that good feeling that comes from doing things for other folks then you have to pay for it in abuse and misunderstanding.
Zora Neale Hurston
My head was full of misty fumes of doubt.
Zora Neale Hurston
I love myself when I am laughing. . . and then again when I am looking mean and impressive.
Zora Neale Hurston
Light came to me when I realized that I did not have to consider any racial group as a whole. God made them duck by duck and that was the only way I could see them.
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
It's a funny thing, the less people have to live for, the less nerve they have to risk losing nothing.
Zora Neale Hurston

Zora Neale Hurston

Zora Neale Hurston
I thought that when they said Atlantic Charter, that meant me and everybody in Africa and Asia and everywhere. But it seems like the Atlantic is an ocean that does not touch anywhere but North America and Europe.
Zora Neale Hurston
It was the meanest moment of eternity.
Zora Neale Hurston
They seemed to be staring at the dark, but their eyes were watching God.
Zora Neale Hurston
There is nothing to make you like other human beings so much as doing things for them.
Zora Neale Hurston
You got to go there to know there.
Zora Neale Hurston
Night came walking through Egypt swishing her black dress.
Zora Neale Hurston
I am the kind of a woman that likes to move on mentally from point to point, and I like for my man to be there way ahead of me. Then if he is strong and honest, it goes on from there. Good looks are not essential, just extra added attraction.
Zora Neale Hurston
It is one of the blessings of this world that few people see visions and dream dreams.
Zora Neale Hurston
Don't you realize that the sea is the home of water? All water is off on a journey unless it's in the sea, and it's homesick, and bound to make its way home someday.
Zora Neale Hurston
