Personal Quotes
Never… never… whether you are five or 100, never give up. It’s never too late.
Our internal racism is still alive. We are still putting each other down and making jokes about each other because of the color of our skin. With women particularly, it’s difficult because the beauty business says, ‘If you don’t look a certain way, God made a mistake.’
I meditate twice a day, T.M., and do yoga and tai chi.
The thing about Robin Givens as an actress is that she doesn’t back away from anything.
Meryl Streep doesn’t care how she looks. She just surrenders to the truth of the character. Not everybody has the ability to do that. They look good and they can pretend to be that person, it’s not the same as being that person. And there are not many actors who will surrender to that.
