My father identified as a black man. No one asked him because he was clearly black. But people always ask me. If we were together, people would look at us in a really strange way. It sucked. As a little girl I had blond hair and they'd look at me, look at him, and be disgusted.

Sipping Bailey's Cream by the stereo, trying to find relief on the radio. I'm suppressing the tears.

We've all been influenced by other people...If Minnie Riperton never existed, would I have even thought of singing in that (upper) register? I doubt it.

No stress, no fights. I'm leaving it all behind. No tears, no time to cry. Just making the most of life.

I think one of the reasons I pushed myself so hard and worked so hard is because I never felt special.

Stay triumphant, keep on living. Stay on your toes, get off the ropes. Don't let 'em ever count you out.

I think that for me personally, a lot of my choices have been to do with my own issues of not feeling safe as a child and feeling a sense of stability.
