Even as a child, I found a way to survive.
I am supposed to be, according to what I am told, one of the children of the cotton plantation owner's sons. If I could prove that, I'd own the whole goddamn everything.
I don't believe in bringing children into the world out of wedlock.
Having my animals or my children with me exorcises that feeling of not being wanted.
I don't wear my political feelings on my sleeve. However, if I'm asked, I will answer honestly.
I used to teach dance lessons.
I am the original Material Girl.
I am a mother and I know the feeling of having a baby come out of my gut.
Dr. Einstein was not successful in school, but he found something in the air from his own imagination and his own brain power, and look what he did.
You don't move just because you want to go from this point to that point - the body has to be using the words as well as you vocally use the words.
I don't think I ever really got interested in theater.
I love to tease men with my legs.
In essence, I'm a sophisticated cotton picker.
I would like to be writing more because people are constantly asking me questions, and I write down what they are asking me.
