husband children thinking
I think it's important to show a husband and a wife together, in a room, raising children, because you don't see that anymore.
living-my-life boxes i-live-my-life
I live my life outside of the box because when I die they're going to put me into one!
mother prayer play
I had one request when I started doing the plays. My prayer was: God let me do well enough to be able to take care of my mother. I was able to do that 'til the day she died because of my audience. So, they've already done enough. All I ask for now is their continued support.
forgiveness hurt walking-forward
When you haven't forgiven those who've hurt you, you turn back against your future. When you do forgive, you start walking forward.
running attitude mistake
My friend Madea has "attitude" that comes with wisdom. Back in our teens and twenties, we thought we knew everything and made all those foolish mistakes. Then, when we got a little older, at thirty, we started getting these flashes of light, revelations of what a great and lucky thing it is that we didn't get caught doing those stupid things back then. Around forty, if we are lucky, we stop lying to ourselves. Fifty and above, we've run out of patience for foolishness. Take me to the bottom line.
dream people upset
You can never be upset with the people who forced you into your dream or up higher.
thinking skeletons dust
Everybody's got skeletons in the closets. Every once in a while, you've got to open up the closet and the let the skeletons breathe. Half the time, the very thing you think is gonna destroy you or ruin you is the very thing that nobody cares about. My advice to people with skeletons is to dust them off every now and then-- as long as your closet's aint full of them. It's not good to have more than two or three.
hurt people trying
People say the truth hurts. Hell no, it hurts even more if you do a whole bunch of foolishness to try and avoid it.
differences causes skirts
...when you put on your shortest dress, please leave some mystery in it. That's the difference between a miniskirt and a ho-skirt. A ho-skirt shows your Frisbee. A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery.
moving heaven black
When black women are down with you and in your corner, you have an ally that will move Heaven and Earth.
inspiration people inspire
I've never chased money. It's always been about what I can do to motivate and inspire people.
causes mystery enough
A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery so the old women have to have it.
dope light waiting
Don't wait for someone to green light your project, build your own intersection.
forgiveness powerful journey
It's not an easy journey, to get to a place where you forgive people. But it is such a powerful place, because it frees you.
