Donald Goines Quote

When I was three years old and in my mother's arms, she looked down at me and said, Son, the way I'm taking care of you now, when you get old, always have a woman to take care of you like this. Dig this! All I'm goin' do is rest and dress, buy gasoline and lean. I'm goin' buy diamond rings and have the best of everything. I'm goin' pimp whores.
