Son House quotes:

Folks talk too fast, and don't understand what they talkin' about.

Ain't but one kind of blues and that consists of a male and female that's in love.

Don't never follow your first mind, cause that's the one that's wrong. 'Cause the Devil beats God to you every time.

The blues is not a plaything like some people think they are.

White folks hear the blues come out, but they don't know how it got there.

You can sing the blues in church if you use the words right.
