I'm not really an impersonator.

Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.

It's like my father always said to me, he said to me, he said, Roseanna Roseanadana, it's always something. If it isn't one thing--it's another! It's always something.

There are those who open their hearts to others...who never think twice about giving of themselves. They are the wonderful warmhearted people who make all the difference in our lives.

I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end.

If I can be a working actor, if I can be an actor and not have a day job, I'll be fine.

They used to say, 'If we find a good black player, we'll sign him.' They was lying.

An open mind but not an empty head.
