More quotes by 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
At 3 years old, I was telling people that I was going to be a star. I never had a plan B. And I've never compromised my integrity to get what I have.

What is the thing that Will could do to make me not love him? That would make me abandon him? I can’t think of one. I'm sorry. Except if he did something bad to the kids - now we've got a problem.
Jada Pinkett Smith
Good mothers make all kinds of choices. Making a decision that might sound selfish does not make a woman a bad mother.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I have been affected by gossip and I know people who have been, too. I've seen marriages destroyed by gossip. It is cruel. At the end of the day, all that matters is: Do you love what you see when you look in the mirror? That is it, baby.
Jada Pinkett Smith
When I believe in something, I'm very passionate. I don't take 'no' for an answer.
Jada Pinkett Smith
What makes Will the best father in the world to me is that he's there, not just there in a way that's traditional. The emotional support he offers his children is immeasurable.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I just want pieces of the world.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I do a lot of reading, meditating, and praying to stay as grounded as I can be in this crazy world.
Jada Pinkett Smith
Just don't pollute something that's not dirty. I want my kids to be happy and I want them to be themselves. I was saying to a friend the other day, 'Remember, our kids are not us.' They're not. Sometimes we're trying to fix things that happened to us or projecting [onto them], and that's a terrible, terrible trap.
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 try my best to confront situations because I know, at the end of the day, you can deal with it or it will deal with you. I've had enough experience to know that that's how it goes down. There's no going around it.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I can't cook! It's genetic. My grandmother can't cook, my mother can't cook. I was raised to believe you eat because your body needs fuel for energy, so I eat super foods.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I think women who lead full lives are better mothers.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I think that with marriages, people have to understand that you have to look at your marriage and understand what is needed in your marriage - not what people think your marriage should be or what people want your marriage to be.
Jada Pinkett Smith
I'm not one about trying to slow things down. What I try to do is create an atmosphere for my family where we can pretty much have whatever.
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
Will is a very interesting, unique man, and I'll tell you why. He makes love like a woman. He loves to touch, massage and feel. He makes love like he's in touch with himself, who he is. And he's a very sensual, incredible lovemaker.
Jada Pinkett Smith
When I'm tired, I rest. I say, 'I can't be a superwoman today.'
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
