It doesn't escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else's.

I discovered that joy is not the negation of pain, but rather acknowledging the presence of pain and feeling happiness in spite of it.

I used to enjoy doing silly walks on the street with my friends. Like, you know, you're walking, and then you break out in something completely ridiculous, to kind of spook out the person walking by you. I can't really do that anymore.

It doesn't escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else's.

We, as human beings, have the capacity for extreme cruelty.

I like to wear things, I don't like things to wear me.

I definitely intend to create my own work in the future so that we don't have to keep saying we don't have work for black women. But right now I don't know what's next. I hope that there are more opportunities to come my way.
