Education isn't something you can finish.

You cannot have the right to do what is wrong!.

Just being from New York, that's something that you do - knowing how to dress..

I like things to reverberate, to be suggestive..

I'm not just another bimbo..

The whites are the same everywhere. I see them every day..

There are no rules. Let the picture lead you where it must go..

I take things too seriously..

I've aged, but grown up? No..

I ain't from Africa. I'm from St. Louis..

Those that think they're complete on their own, or want to be, don't know how to love..

Accidental stacks considered harmful..

It's never over till it's over with a friend..

Stand-up is something I just truly love to do, so I'll always go back to it. I'll never stop doing it, that's for sure..

The day you stop learning is the day you begin decaying..

For we put the thought of all that we love into all that we make..

The days passed, as they do, and life went on..

Protecting yourself from failure is probably not a good way to live..

If you can't understand the blues, you don't know much.

You don't know how to love God and your neighbor unless you look to the law to define it..

You have to really have a taste for being alone to be a writer..
