I'm very shy in a crowd.
Patti LaBelle
I want to be remembered as a woman who was fair and always gave 150 percent, no matter what I did.
Patti LaBelle
So if anybody wants to get me something, get me 60 crabs - one for each year. I don't want no diamonds, I don't want no shoes, I don't want no party. I want some crabs.

I never wanted to go on stage alone because if you mess up, who can you blame?
Patti LaBelle
It's a sweet thing, faith. With it, you can handle any circumstance, any crisis, because you know God always has your back. And when God is for you, who can be against you? Nobody. As my Aunt Hattie says, One and God are a majority.
Patti LaBelle
Whenever I go out, so many people who respect me ask me what to do in a certain situation. A lot of times, I didn't know the answers because sometimes I was going through the same sort of thing. But then later on, I would think of things that people told me.
Patti LaBelle
I don't feel as though I have to prove anything to anybody.
Patti LaBelle
Every exit is an entrance to someplace else.

Many a false step is made standing still.
Patti LaBelle
I've had 60 years of ups and downs, and all of the downs that I've had, I'm happy that I've had them because it's taught me to appreciate all the ups.
Patti LaBelle
I decided to always sing in the back with the chorus and never went up front because I had trouble performing.
Patti LaBelle
All I can tell you really is if you get to the point where someone is telling you that you are not great or not good enough, just follow your heart and don't let anybody crush your dream.
Patti LaBelle
I've never been with a woman, so I guess I'm straight, OK? But I'm straight enough to know the difference between right and wrong. I am straight enough to know that if you want to marry whoever you want to marry, you should be able to marry whoever you want to marry
Patti LaBelle
I'm very spontaneous.
Patti LaBelle
I love Canadians because I don't see very much racism in Canada.
Patti LaBelle
I'm 60, and I did 60-year-old women songs. I'm not trying to be the Hip-Hop Queen, although I am the original Hip Hop Queen.
