Ethel Waters

When you dominate other people's emotions, the time has to come when you will have to pay, and heavily, for that privilege.

I am an isolationist.

There was one emotional outlet my people always had when they had the blues. That was singing.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.

Drawing makes you see things clearer, and clearer and clearer still, until your eyes ache.
