Quotes

  • “Nothing gets me. Good or bad. Because I never look back. If you look back, you're going to be in trouble, you will suffer from depression, mental illness – no! Always look forward.”
  • “I don't let the bad things eat me up, oh no. Because I'm not a victim. That's why people say to me, "When I see your smile I feel so happy, when I see your body, your aura, I feel as if I can cope." Because I’m Miss Optimist!”
  • “When you are black you carry your colour with you everywhere you go.”
  • “I am there to move society on and even though I get obstacles I will overcome them because I am working for good.”
  • “I won. And I'm telling women that they can win.”
