I shall not care ...

... overdosed on sleeping pills.

WHEN I am dead and over me bright April
Shakes out her rain-drenched hair,
 
Tho' you should lean above me broken-hearted,
I shall not care.

I shall have peace, as leafy trees are peaceful
When rain bends down the bough,

And I shall be more silent and cold-hearted
Than you are now.

... comments on the historic guilt of European colonizers

 

"Who can describe the injustice and cruelties that in the course of centuries they [the coloured peoples] have suffered at the hands of Europeans? ... If a record could be compiled of all that has happened between the white and the coloured races, it would make a book containing numbers of pages which the reader would have to turn over unread because their contents would be too horrible."
