Whenever my environment had failed to support or nourish me, I had clutched at books.

Book, Support, Environment
Richard Wright (1998). “Black Boy”, Turtleback

Anything seemed possible, likely, feasible, because I wanted everything to be possible... Because I had no power to make things happen outside of me in the objective world, I made things happen within. Because my environment was bare and bleak, I endowed it with unlimited potentialities, redeemed it for the sake of my own hungry and cloudy yearning.
