Quote by Nikki Giovanni
I am totally fascinated by people and our history as I understand

I am totally fascinated by people and our history as I understand and continue to explore it. People have so much to give and so far to go and yet we have given and gone a great distance. Its really just interesting to ask: why not? And see where that takes me. – Nikki Giovanni
