I give and give, even when I get nothing back - and that sets me up for disappointment.

I would never disrespect any man, woman, chick or child out there. We're all the same. What goes around comes around, and karma kicks us all in the butt in the end of the day.

I get a special joy in knowing people feel comfortable if they see me in Wal-Mart or in a no-frills section trying to get something on a discount.

What you see is what you get. What you hear is who I am.

I feel like something magical is going to happen, and I feel like all the stars have finally lined up perfectly for Angie Stone.

Because I'm just a giving person spiritually, I feel that if your intentions are to use or abuse or take advantage of, then you might get what you get in the meantime, but there's still a price to pay.

My daughter recently reminded me not to get so busy making a living, I forget to make a life and I'm going to take that advice.
