I prayed very hard for this to happen and it happened. I don't even think about what I've achieved, I haven't focused on it and I wish I had, because I really want to enjoy it, and I don't know if I am enjoying it, because I am going through my life like a bulldozer. I still haven't marveled at it.

I don't want a boyfriend just for the sake of it. I don't trust most people out there. There's too much at risk and I don't need to be a notch on somebody's bedpost. I'll flirt with you all night long, but then it's buh, bye!

I hope to be around past the 90's. I don't want to just be categorized as one of this era. My goal is to have a career that stands.

Stay triumphant, keep on living. Stay on your toes, get off the ropes. Don't let 'em ever count you out.

I've seen the real extreme diva behaviour and I don't think that's who I am.

I always sang and I always wrote...it's just having that ambition. You really can't let go of your dreams.

Never listen to anybody who try to discourage you.
