Once you know who you are, you don't have to worry anymore.

I think one of the nicest things that we created as a generation was just the fact that we could say, 'Hey, I don't like white people.'

The more you love someone the more he wants from you and the less you have to give since you've already given him your love.

I think we're always in love. It's that simple. And it's important to remember that love doesn't have anything to do with sex. It's two different things. Being in love is the happy part. I was teasing my gentleman, "We know that you're in love when you cook for us." It's true. When men cook for you, they're in love.

And you will understand all too soon That you, my children of battle, are your heroes
