Gil Scott-Heron Quotes:

Ocupation: Poet

Life: April 1, 1949 - May 27, 2011

Birthday: April 1

Death: May 27

I am a black man dedicated to expression; expression of the joy and pride of blackness. I consider myself neither poet, composer, or musician. These are merely tools used by sensitive men to carve out a piece of beauty or truth that they hope may lead to peace and salvation.
