More From Ryan Lochte

From its earliest days, the cuban revolution has also been a source of inspiration to all freedom-loving people. we admire the sacrifices of the cuban people in maintaining their independence and sovereignty in the face of the vicious imperialist-orquestrated campaign to destroy the impressive gain made in the cuban revolution. long live the cuban revolution. long live comrade fidel castro.

If you love black people, why are you destroying haiti? if you love black people, why did you, [hillary] clinton, stop them from the rice that they were producing in haiti to feed themselves and other caribbean nations? you put the rice industry out of business; and now rice is coming from arkansas, chicken coming from arkansas, when it once was growing right there in haiti.

Taste governs every free - as opposed to rote - human response. nothing is more decisive. there is taste in people, visual taste, taste in emotion - and there is taste in acts, taste in morality. intelligence, as well, is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas.

Look, i made a commitment to corn 17 years ago. sure, i'm a man. i like to go to a barbecue and see beans that i like: baked beans, red beans, black beans, big plump garbanzos. but in the end, i always come home to my sweet, sweet corn.
Sweet Home Commitment
White people scare the crap out of me. i have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord, never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and i've never heard a black person say, 'we're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here - have a nice day!'
Movie Jobs Nice
I eat 6 or 7 raw vegetables every day, 4 or 5 pieces of fresh fruit. i eat egg whites each day. if i eat bread, it has to be whole wheat. i eat brown rice. i don't eat between meals. i eat at 11 o'clock in the morning and 7 o'clock at night.

Morning Heart Cutting
We were fractious and overpaid. our mornings lacked promise. at least those of us who smoked had something to look forward to at ten-fifteen.
Morning Promise Looks
[raymond roussel] said that after his first book he expected that the next morning there would be a kind of aura around his person and that everyone in the street would be able to see that he had written a book. this is the obscure desire harboured by everyone who writes. it is true that the first text one writes is neither written for others, nor because one is what one is: one writes to become other than what one is. one tries to modify one's way of being through the act of writing.

I'm singing 'english tea' from my new album 'chaos and creation in the backyard.' i have a cup of tea in the morning, so it's something good to wake up to.
