Top 15 Daniel Abbott Quotes (2024 Update)

Daniel Abbott Quote: “Accountability is the only real beginning to change.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “If you ask Denny, he will tell you: “I’m a patriot. I love my country.” A country that doesn’t love him back. Doesn’t love him black. A patriot. Let that register. A black patriot. In a country that won’t acknowledge that Black Lives Matter.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “Leaving’s not an option when there’s nowhere to go.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “He’s only ever wanted solace. To thrive in the crevices of existence, slip into the dark cracks of life and avoid the noise. But the noise finds him, the chaos – it’s persistent beckoning toward a path that is not his own. Can never be his own. He needs seclusion. Yet every tangible ability he has requires an audience.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “A line between white and black had been drawn in my life. I straddled that line with an ache I had no name for. An ache I now understand as identity crisis.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “The city yawns and stretches. A lazy Sunday morning opens its eyes. Cesar’s always loved it down here. The water flowing beneath him. The city surrounding the ancient river. A bright green canopy of trees far off in the distance. Cesar’s always appreciated the beauty. He’s always thought it was a perfect juxtaposition of urban and God.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “He knows nothing of those dark roads she’s travelled, those dark deeds she’s done, the doors she’s locked her innocence in. That Joy Green is gone. Those keys are lost. Jackie loves a memory, that’s all, and what good did love ever do anybody anyway.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “As a teenager I felt misunderstood. I felt confused. Somewhere in that confusion was me. The me I was destined to become.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “The delivery room is cold and it has a view of the city. A view of smokestacks and snow-kissed rooftops. An industrial grid of squares that seem to go on for miles. And the snowflakes have wings. Big white butterflies suspended in air. The kind kids like to catch on their tongues.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “I brought Grand Rapids with me to Newaygo. I brought difference. I was used to a fluid concept of harmony. I was used to diversity. Homogenous harmony has walls. As a fourteen-year-old boy in Newaygo, I felt those walls.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “A crack rock-bottom is beneath rock-bottom. It’s a slab ceiling in every direction. A concrete box filled with guilt. During the chase you’re focused. The only thing that exists is the fix. Your mind is lost in the now, in the journey. Your life, everyone you’re hurting, everything you left behind, it all quiets down until you find this bottom, this moment of clarity. And when you find it the guilt is upon you. There’s nowhere to go. Not until the fix frees you.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “Cars slowed down as they passed. White drivers with white passengers. White parents with white children, watching. Not seeing, I imagine, three innocent black boys being harassed by racist police officers. Seeing three black criminals being brought to justice. Young minds being shaped into wrong thinking. Generational ignorance being reinforced through misconstrued observation.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “Give me my brother. You can keep your friends.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “It’s like she’s floating inside of herself, in the dark, and whatever hasn’t already emptied inside her is emptying now...”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “The little girl who loved her father more than anything in the world is gone. Who survived has survived wolves.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “I was broken when I met her and to say she fixed me would be an exaggeration. I’m still fixing me. My wife is fixing me. My children are fixing me. God stays fixing me. I’m still not fixed. I am and always will be a work-in-progress. What’s not an exaggeration is that a black woman showed a white boy unconditional love. A black woman taught a white boy how to unconditionally love. Diane Cartwright saw me as God sees me: as a masterpiece.”
Daniel Abbott Quote: “She hasn’t aged a day, besides the sadness in her eyes.”
