Mama, mama, help me get home i'm out in the woods, i am out on my own. i found me a werewolf, a nasty old mutt it showed me its teeth and went straight for my gut. mama, mama, help me get home i'm out in the woods, i am out on my own. i was stopped by a vampire, a rotting old wreck it showed me its teeth and went straight for my neck. mama, mama, put me to bed i won't make it home, i'm already half-dead. i met an invalid, and fell for his art he showed me his smile, and went straight for my heart. -from "a child's walk home," nursery rhymes and folk tales

Just because i write some songs about bad women, though, that doesn't mean i hate women. i've written songs that show great love and respect for women too. songs that talk about strong, upstanding women and their pain. i have women working on my music. they understand where i'm coming from. so does my mama. i always play my music for her before it comes out. why do you think i wrote "dear mama"? i wrote it for my mama because i love her and i felt i owed her something deep.

My mama never wore a pair of pants when i was growing up, and now that's all she wears. it was so funny for me when i first started seeing mama wear pants. it was like it wasn't mama. now i've bought her many a pantsuit because she just lives in them.

What is sin? it is the glory of god not honored. the holiness of god not reverenced. the greatness of god not admired. the power of god not praised. the truth of god not sought. the wisdom of god not esteemed. the beauty of god not treasured. the goodness of god not savored. the faithfulness of god not trusted. the commandments of god not obeyed. the justice of god not respected. the wrath of god not feared. the grace of god not cherished. the presence of god not prized. the person of god not loved. that is sin.

Imagine if you had genuine, high-quality early-childhood education for every child, and suddenly every black child in america - but also every poor white child or latino [child], but just stick with every black child in america - is getting a really good education. and they're graduating from high school at the same rates that whites are, and they are going to college at the same rates that whites are, and they are able to afford college at the same rates because the government has universal programs. so now they're all graduating.

It is not expensive to be beautiful. it takes only a little effort to be presentable and beautiful. but it takes some effort. and unfortunately people think of beauty as luxury, beauty as frivolity, ... or extravagance. beauty is a discipline, beauty is art, is harmony, in the ideological sense and in the theological sense, beauty is god and love made real. and the ultimate reach in this world is beauty.
