More quotes by Jada Pinkett Smith
The love of a child is different from any other type of love on the planet. And being loved by your children is a love that is immense. I'm always so overwhelmed by how much my children love me. I think the best part of being a parent is feeling the love of a child.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I find fame to be quite unnatural. Humans are not built for extreme adoration.

We have to understand that we should, at all times, have the right and the power to make decisions about our bodies. And that is an idea that must be taught at a young age. You can't wait until a person is 18 years old and say, 'Now you have the right'. You have to start that from the gate.

I do a lot of reading, meditating, and praying to stay as grounded as I can be in this crazy world.

I've always told Will, 'You can do whatever you want as long as you can look at yourself in the mirror and be okay.' Because at the end of the day, Will is his own man. I'm here as his partner, but he is his own man. He has to decide who he wants to be, and that's not for me to do for him. Or vice versa.
Jada Pinkett Smith
As I've gotten older, and now that my kids are starting to do what they do, I am now really focusing on sharing my knowledge and insights with them to help guide them on their journeys.
Jada Pinkett Smith
When I'm tired, I rest. I say, 'I can't be a superwoman today.'
Jada Pinkett Smith
I do call upon a little Fish Mooney energy sometimes, believe it or not.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I have a great way of disappearing, and I'm able to do things people would never imagine. I'm often not recognized because I'm easy to hide if I change my hairstyle or put on a hat. I disappear very easily. That's not hard for me to do.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I really look at children as being little people and not necessarily things or people to control.
Jada Pinkett Smith
When I look in the mirror, I see about a thousand different Jadas.
Jada Pinkett Smith
Oh, I laugh hard every day. I mean, my husband is Will Smith! I'm telling you, that's one of the joys of being married to him. My life full of laughter. Thank God I have him. My life is full of laughter because of that man.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I just think, as women, we have to give ourselves room to be individuals. So when a woman makes a decision for herself, we as women shouldn't set those hardcore boundaries for another woman. Just like we don't want men setting hardcore boundaries for us.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I never stop being a mother and I never stop being an artist. You understand? Which is probably why my kids are so creative, because it’s not separated.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I don't really cook much. I'm more of a baker. My favorite things to bake that everybody loves, and I can only keep in the house for about ten minutes, are 7-Up cake and Pineapple Upside-Down cake.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I just want pieces of the world.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I'm extremely ambitious. I don't know why people are afraid to say that. I won't sell my soul to the devil, but I do want success and I don't think that's bad.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I would say Will came at a time in my life where he saw beauty in me that I didn't see in myself at the time. And, you know, he saw a diamond in the rough and kind of, picked me up and blew off all the dust and said, 'I'm telling you, I'm going to make you shine, girl.'
Jada Pinkett Smith
