"We live in capitalism, and capitalism is defined……" — Walter Mosley

"We live in capitalism, and capitalism is defined by the production line, and the production line is defined by specificity. If you see yourself as an artist, which I do, then you can't be limited by that. You can't let somebody tell you, 'Well, you can only draw this kind of picture or write that kind of book.'"

— Walter Mosley
