A lot of things come down to your roots and how you're brought up.
I understand people want to hold on to their roots.
Roots is not just a saga of my family. It is the symbolic saga of a people.
I'm very proud of my roots, and I would never try not to be who I am.
I want to show how strong I am from my roots.
For me, ancestry is just one thing that connects us to people, and feeling connected to other people is generally a good thing, as long as one kind of connection does not have primacy over all the others. Heredity, race and nationhood are not the best criteria by which to judge our fellow humans.
I've gotta stick to my roots, and my roots are blues.
I know my roots and I cannot forget the journey I made.
I'm trying to buy a house and set some sense of roots because otherwise you're constantly chasing one job after another, and you look back and you've had all these very extraordinary experiences with extraordinary people, but there's not a line of continuity to it.
Roots are not in landscape or a country, or a people, they are inside you.
