There's a million ways to make people happy.

There is no secret, you try and never stop trying. If you have to sleep all day, and get up the next day, you keep trying. If you have to take 3 years away, do it and then come back. But it's all about trying. Not everything will work, but some things will, and you have to try.

Tolerance is the seed, and the gift of pure acceptance is the tree

I feel very strongly in my opinion that everyone is responsible to themselves for what they do.

I'm African American, I'm a lot of other things, a musician and an artist. But that woman part holds the most pain for me. And therefore, obviously, the most lessons.

What is socially irresponsible, once again, is just all my opinion. But there are things that I don't think are cool.

You know how people are becoming sexually active way too early because they think it's going to be like it is in the movies. And people are not aware of their bodies in a certain way, because they are afraid to see themselves for who they are because they want to see themselves in someone else's shoes or whatever.
