  • Toni Morrison is an amazing insightful mother of this world and I am so appreciative to have her in my life, and to have access to her knowledge and wisdom.

  • I've met her (I think) and I've done a report on her.

    And she teaches at Princeton, which is close to where I live [;

  • I admire her so much! She's a great author. I've read every one of her books.

  • She is absolutely correct - a very intelligent, gifted woman. We need more like her out there...

  • Toni Morrison can never die. The day that happens, we're all doomed.

  • Only fifty one seconds, you dirty lil tease....
