I'm one of those hovering mothers and I know it's really important to have an independent child, so I'm trying to back off, but it's hard. I love him so much, and he's so funny and cute to me.

God knows, I never want to hurt someone's feelings.

The only time he cries is if he’s hungry. We all have nipples. I don’t care who I offend; my baby wants to eat. If I can’t get a cover over me quick enough, so be it.

I used to wear a lot of red lipstick, and when I got a pimple, I'd cover it up with eyeliner to turn it into a beauty mark.

I have no fears when it comes to my hair or clothes.

A wedding is such a girl thing.

My first crush was Spock. I thought it didn't get any better than Spock.

I have very little faith that I'll ever find someone. I've had some bad luck and I've made some bad choices - not in men, but in how I've chosen to deal with relationships.

I'm pretty much a loner and I've lived under the radar.

I'm flatchested, I'm short, I'm brunette, I have droopy eyes, and so people have a hard time casting me as a 'beauty.'

I don't like slugs and tentacles and calamari or anything. Actually, tentacles made me turn into a vegetarian in high school. I'm not anymore, but in high school, we were dissecting squid.

A man's plumbing is like his mind: simple, very few surprises. You ladies, on the other hand...well, God put a lot of thought in making you.

I’m not sentimental about anything. Life flows by, and you flow with it or you don’t. Move on and move out.

No matter where I travel in the state, people want to talk about education.

I spend days with writers' block. It is a problem.

It is annoying when people call me Matilda instead of my name when they actually know my name, because you know, we are two different people. But what can you do?

Today we did what we had to do. They counted on America to be passive. They counted wrong.

I don't think people have been able to deal with the fact that African American filmmakers can make movies about life and relationships.

Someday, you will find the one who will watch every sunrise with you until the sunset of your life.

"Lambe them, lads! lambe them!" a cant phrase of the time derived from the fate of Dr. Lambe, an astrologer and quack, who was knocked on the head by the rabble in Charles the First's time.
