Don't be afraid to feel as angry or as loving as you can, because when you feel nothing, it's just death.

The New Bajan (1990)

It's so nice to get flowers while you can still smell the fragrance.

I made a promise to myself to be kinder to other people.

"Always be smarter than the people who hire you.“

I am not alone. I am free. I no longer have to be a credit, I don't have to be a symbol to anybody, I don't have to be a first to anybody. I don't have to be an imitation of a white woman that Hollywood sort of hoped I'd become. I'm me, and I'm like nobody else.

Lena Horne (1997)
