Summary

This quote suggests that relationships based solely on attraction or infatuation are built on false impressions and lack emotional depth. The term "illusion" implies that the initial excitement and allure of a love match can blind individuals from seeing the true nature of their partner. However, the mention of "need for their mother" implies that such relationships often stem from a dependency on others for fulfillment and validation. In essence, the quote highlights the importance of a deeper emotional connection and genuine understanding for a committed and lasting relationship.

We younger Negro artists who create now intend to express our individual dark-skinned selves without fear or shame. If white people are pleased, we are glad. If they are not, it doesn't matter. We know we are beautiful. And ugly too. The tom-tom cries and the tom-tom laughs. If colored people are pleased, we are glad. If they are not, it doesn't matter either. We build our temples for tomorrow, strong as we know how, and we stand on top of the mountain, free within ourselves.
