"I have three girls, and I say the same thing to them. I'm not involved in their careers because I've learned that it's important for them to stand on their own two feet. They'll feel better and prouder of themselves if they do."
Career
"Instead of looking at the past, I put myself ahead twenty years and try to look at what I need to do now in order to get there then."
Now

"My travels led me to where I am today. Sometimes these steps have felt painful, difficult, but led me to greater happiness and opportunites."
Happiness

Power

Time
"You know, you do need mentors, but in the end, you really just need to believe in yourself."
End
"Years ago I wanted to buy an apartment in New York City. I was a single female - I had gone through my divorce - I had three children, I was in show business and black. It was, like, impossible."
Business
"I learned something from that. If someone asks me something that I really don't want to do, I say no. I have to trust that. And I'm not afraid to talk money."
