Ain't but a mile and they was ready to give up. I meant to keep on, but they dragged me back. That was the last time I convinced anybody to run. That freedom fire, that ain't something that can be stoked in someone else, and embers ain't enough.

Underground Season 2 Episode 6 Quotes

To tell you how I came to be free, first you gotta understand what bondage was like for me. How it attacks the senses. The sound of it. the crack of a whip like thunder. The feel of it...like you could barely take a full breath. The taste of it, like all your teeth, are made of copper. the smell of it. The fade in stench of everybody sold away; and the look of it, every eye turned down to the ground away from the horror.

The first thing I knew, was to be afraid of white men.
