I was very shy. I'm still shy.

I can't do some of the songs that younger girls like Mary J. Blige and Beyonce are doing. They have their own place and I have my own place.

That's another lesson I've learned the hard way. All relationships will die if they aren't nurtured. Just as a flower will die if it's not watered. Because love is demonstration, not declaration.

I'm very shy in a crowd.

When I was married, I wasn't loving myself. Now I'm in love with myself. I will get married again.

In matters of the heart it is always better to want something you don't have than to have something you don't want.

Tell Aretha I’ll be praying for herBecause she needs Jesus!I love her.
