I didn't have a mother; I had a mama. I measure other women by the stature of my mama.
Some people believe that fairness comes with obeying the rules. I'm one of those people.
I did a whole concert in Atlanta with my fly open, and I had a black suit on and a white shirt. My white shirt was protruding from the fly.
I learned more stuff in church than I did in the world.
People still come up to me and ask me to sign their records. That's right, records! Man, they don't even make records no more!
I'm thankful for every moment.
