Sherman Alexie Quotes:
Ocupation: Poet
Life: b. October 7, 1966
Birthday: October 7
Last September 16th, I was walking in downtown Seattle when this pick-up truck pulls up in front of me. Guy leans out the window and yells, "Go back to your own country," and I was laughing so hard because it wasn't so much a hate crime as a crime of irony.
