I am not on Facebook. I'm not on Instagram. I only use Twitter, which I wish I didn't.

The best shows are always the ones that are very, very low-concept and just about great characters.

If the doors aren't open, just kick them in and keep walking.

Sometimes you've got to just commit to the idea and press forward and trust that you made the right decision.

You can't just sit around in leopard-print slippers and drink champagne all day and think everything's gonna work out somehow.

I stopped using Twitter for a while just because I got sick of it and I started using it again, but I don't check the "mentions."

You should be nice to people because it's better to be nice to people than mean to people, not because you think there's something in it for you.

I doubt if one ever accepts a belief until one urgently needs it.

Insofar as we, critics of the black tradition, master our craft, we serve both to preserve our own traditions and to shape their direction. All great writers demand great critics.

Segregation is evil; there is no pattern of life which can dehumanize men as can the way of segregation.

The happiest days are when babies come.

And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn't really change the fact that you have what you have. Good and bad.

I'm lazy but generally task oriented so having a hoop to jump through means eventually I'll make the effort.

An enormous mass of experience, both of homeopathic doctors and their patients, is invoked in favor of the efficacy of these remedies and doses.
