A Quote by Jason Whitlock
I didn't brown-nose my way here. I pulled out guns and shot my way here. So people don't mind shooting back. If I'd gotten here brown-nosing and playing all the political games, I'd probably be treated differently.

One of my favorite Tarantino films is 'Jackie Brown,' and 'Jackie Brown' does it so well, where I'm watching the back half of that movie, and I don't know which side Jackie Brown is playing. I think it's really ingenious for Tarantino to keep us in the dark on that.
When I first played New York, it was with James Brown at the Apollo, and I was playing in a band under the name The Valentinos. I remember Sam Cooke saying, 'I want you to go in there with James Brown. I couldn't be as hard on you as James Brown would be.' But we came out marching like soldiers.

The brown bag, of course, had its imperfections. While some kids carried roast beef sandwiches, others had peanut butter.

It is unacceptable that the way we have treated people who have become addicted in the past is by throwing them in prison. It's appropriate that we're responding now by trying to get people the treatment they so desperately need.
