You never write a speech in advance because if you don't get to use it, you'll be heartbroken.

To be silent is to be passive.

Where I'm from, you learned about God before you learned to read and write. Our faith is what grounds us.

I prefer doing interviews where people don't have to interpret what you say. I'm going to be real honest.

There are moments where you stop living, if you stop changing, and if you stop seeking growth of some sort.

God in my mind gives you what you need. So, if you need God to be a black woman and you need that for whatever your reasons are, then perhaps your blessings will come in that form.

I'm excited that I get to do what I love, and I'm benefiting through projects that speak to me.
