“I see so many fools in this world that sometimes I could just go home and cry about what people do to themselves… Hey, wake up, wake up, look here! Think a minute, think a minute. This is your life! You got, what, ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, sixty years here, and you gonna be gone.’”
— J. California Cooper in an interview with The Bloomsbury Review

“All my family, my blood, is mixed up now. They don’t even all know each other. I just hope they don’t never hate or fight each other, not knowin who they are. Cause all these people livin are brothers and sisters and cousins. All these beautiful different colors! We!… We the human Family. God says so! FAMILY!”
—J. CALIFORNIA COOPER, Family
