More quotes by Shonda Rhimes
The only limit to success is your own imagination.
Shonda Rhimes
Making it through the ceiling to the other side was simply a matter of running on a path created by every other woman's footprints.
Shonda Rhimes
A hashtag is not helping... A hashtag is not a movement. A hashtag does not make you Dr. King. A hashtag does not change anything. It's a hashtag.
Shonda Rhimes
I think a lot of people dream. And while they are busy dreaming, the really happy people, the really successful people, the really interesting, engaged, powerful people, are busy doing.
Shonda Rhimes
I don't understand why people don't understand that the world of TV should look like the world outside of TV.

I'm a black woman every day, and I'm not confused about that. I'm not worried about that. I don't need to have a discussion with you about how I feel as a black woman, because I don't feel disempowered as a black woman.

Most of the women I saw on TV didn't seem like people I actually knew. They felt like ideas of what women are.

Yes, it is hard out there. But hard is relative. I come from a middle-class family, my parents are academics. I was born after the Civil Rights movement, I was a toddler during the women's movement, I live in the United States of America, all of which means I am allowed to own my freedom, my rights, my voice and my uterus.
Shonda Rhimes
I am terrible with examples. I can never think of them when anybody asks for an example.
Shonda Rhimes
Mother is a verb, not a noun.
Shonda Rhimes
I happen to like debating, and I like to debate like a lawyer, and I can argue any points to death, and I will.
Shonda Rhimes
I think it's sad, and weird, and strange that [race in casting] is still a thing. It's 2013. Somebody else needs to get their act together.
Shonda Rhimes
You can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.
Shonda Rhimes
Nobody got anything great by playing it safe.
Shonda Rhimes
Mother is not a title. Mother is a verb. It is not who you are. It's what you do.
Shonda Rhimes
At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That's how we're made. So, you can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them
Shonda Rhimes
This moment right here, me standing up here all brown with my boobs and my Thursday night of network television full of women of color, competitive women, strong women, women who own their bodies and whose lives revolve around their work instead of their men, women who are big dogs, that could only be happening right now.
Shonda Rhimes
You can't tell stories and really walk in someone's shoes and not have a love for them, even if they're doing horrible things.
Shonda Rhimes
I cannot keep track and lots of great shows go unnoticed.
Shonda Rhimes
When people show you who they are, believe them. I carry that with me a lot. It has served me well.
