You're not surviving if you're not on social media, period.

I think I unknowingly seek people who are better than me in the sense of strength and wisdom. It's like I've got to know and trust that you have the answers and that you can carry me if needed.

Social media is driving the culture, it drives peoples minds literally.

Money is important yes, but not the most important. I don't need money to smile or breathe. I would still be breathing if all my money disappeared tomorrow.

I know when to go and when to stop. I'm the red, the yellow, and the green light. That's me in a nutshell.

The telling of a good story, especially one that is real and true, is always exciting.

I was drawn into acting due to the fact that I could express myself better. I could use my voice - my entire body - not just my looks, height, and physical expressions.

When the passion isn't there, the drive isn't there and it just doesn't last for me.

I've always been an actress, entertaining my family was the start. I'm a goof ball among many of my cousins and siblings.

Life would continue to exist and grow. Cause and effect still exist even where there is no time.

You're living in a matrix that's driven by social media. It's become glorified. You're suppose to be what you portray on social media, thats the perception.

When your mind is rich in the wisdom, and your heart is sensitive and filled with love, you are a person, who can change the world.

I am conscious of how my body signifies in every space. In every place of the world our body has a different significance.

One of my first gigs was as a guest star, and I was supposed to be a big imposing character.

It is much easier for me to imagine a praying murderer, a praying prostitute, than a vain person praying. Nothing is so at odds with prayer as vanity.

I'll be a fool or a wiseman, my darling, you hold the key. Anyway you want me, that's how I will be.

A person cannot grow up through happiness. Happiness makes a person shallow. It is only through suffering that we grow up, transform, and come to a better understanding of life.

I am famous because I am an African American jazz artist.

Everything we can dream can be real.

Talent is a dull knife that will cut nothing unless it is wielded with great force.

I'd love to see T'he Avengers' with Robert Downey, Jr. playing Loki and Clark Gregg playing 'Thor' and I play Captain America.
