More quotes by Queen Latifah
Some people observe life naturally and sometimes you just have to let things out and think about it later.
Queen Latifah
There is nothing like a person with confidence, male or female, not conceitedness, but confidence. That inspires other people.
Queen Latifah
Life is so much bigger, grander, higher, and wider than we allow ourselves to think.
Queen Latifah
I am a strong woman with or without this other person, with or without this job, and with or without these tight pants.
Queen Latifah
Church was a requirement, there was no choice in the matter, so was vacation bible school. Gospel has been in me since I was a kid.
Queen Latifah
Award shows, like the Grammys, were tough on us early in hip-hop, not even televising our categories or splitting them up on best male or female or any of that. We had to earn them.
Queen Latifah
If you try to follow everyone else's mold, you'll probably fail at some point because God created us uniquely for a reason.
Queen Latifah
Hip-hop definitely taught me a lot. Having to create your own identity and become known and respected in a male-dominated field - it requires some guts. There are times you have to be strong, and times when you have to stand alone for what you believe in.
Queen Latifah
I wish every woman would love herself and embrace what she was given naturally.
Queen Latifah
I like Pirate's Booty. Prunes and olives, too. I love hummus. I can eat that until I die. I tend to eat mostly organic food.
Queen Latifah
Having a belief in God, being able to find joy, despite your circumstances or put yourself outside of yourself, and stop looking inwards and look outwards a little bit really helps to carry through tough times. Giving makes you feel better.
Queen Latifah
There are different flavours of sexiness.
Queen Latifah
I want every day to be life for the living, not just traipsing through it existing. I'm just interested in life and the world and exploring.
Queen Latifah
I often find it's just the confidence that makes you sexy, not what your body looks like. It's how you feel about yourself that makes you sexy.
Queen Latifah
I'd say, if you want to be an artist, start with your art start with making great music and it will, hopefully, eventually cut through all of the nonsense that is out there.
Queen Latifah
I write pretty often. I have a home studio. Music is what I do for fun. I never get tired of it, so to take a break from [TV and movies], I would go make some music.
Queen Latifah
I'm as involved as I can be. Whenever I'm asked to do something, I always tend to show up.
Queen Latifah
Jumping off that cliff in Jamaica.It was years ago. It was at this place called Rick's Cafe. Actually, it was two cliffs. They were pretty high, probably a good 40- 50-foot jump into the ocean. That was crazy.
Queen Latifah
There are so many things I'd like to do. Like becoming a parent. To me that is the next natural progression in life.
Queen Latifah
It was a very vulnerable time going from being insecure about my body and who I am to becoming comfortable with me. I had to tune out what the hell everybody else had to say about who I was. When I was able to do that, I felt free.
Queen Latifah
