I knew something was wrong with the economy when the shampoo girl at my salon closed on a six bedroom house.

But I understand that relationship; I understand how the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law relationship has so many conflicts because it's so forced.

Being gay is harder than being black. I didn't have to come out black. I didn't have to tell my parents about what its like to be black.

I don’t understand why people really get upset about something that doesn’t affect them at all.

Writers get to stay with the piece. They don't just turn the script in and somebody else takes it over and goes out and produces it and edits it and all that stuff. We stay with the piece all the way through.

That word sassy - it haunts me. I keep getting the sassy thing.
