When I was a kid, my mother told me that if you could not be a good loser, then there's no way you could be a good winner.

I don't see a white woman. I see a black woman, even though my mother is white [her father Jerome is black]. Knowing that has made my life easier, I think.

I'm a much better mother at 46... than if I were like, 21 or 25.

You think you know what love is - until you have a child and discover that unconditional mother love.

I spent a lot of time with a crown on my head.
