"Isn't this the most fascinating country in the world? Where else would I have to ride in the back of the bus, have a choice of going to the worst schools, eating in the worst restaurants, living in the worst neighborhoods - and average $5,000 a week just talking about it?" Dick Gregory From Back of the Bus - Avon Books
