I Was Unique In That I Was A Kind Of Black That White People Could Accept. I Was Their Daydream. I Had The Worst Kind Of Acceptance Because It Was Never For How Great I Was Or What I Contributed. It Was Because Of The Way I Looked.

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.

Always Be Smarter Than The People Who Hire You.
