I have the background singers of Ray Charles, the background singers of Smokey Robinson, and the background singers of Barry White and I built a choir around that.

I don't see how I possibly could have come from where I entered the planet to where I am now if there had not been angels along the way.

There are people much less fortunate than us, and I don't mean people hungry sleeping in the streets either

People have known me for so long, I'm just Della to them.

So, yes, I believe in angels, absolutely, I do.

When you really believe in God, it gives you a courage, a confidence that enables you to meet the things coming.

I could not have made it this far had there not been angels along the way.
