If you're not sure how you feel about same-sex marriage, go and meet some of the families and see what they're looking for.

Whoopi Goldberg
I had such a good time doing that movie [Sister Act 2]. My daughter's in that movie. It was a fun film to do. And it shocked a lot of people, because they loved it, and they take it with them.
Whoopi Goldberg
When you are kind to someone in trouble, you hope they'll remember and be kind to someone else. And it'll become like a wildfire.

I'm as American as Chevrolet.
Whoopi Goldberg
Things happen to you out of luck, and if you get to stick around it's because you're talented.
Whoopi Goldberg
When I was nine years old, Star Trek came on, I looked at it and I went screaming through the house, 'Come here, mum, everybody, come quick, come quick, there's a black lady on television and she ain't no maid!' I knew right then and there I could be anything I wanted to be.
Whoopi Goldberg
It bums me out tremendously what the church has become, and if it's got me bummed, imagine what Jesus Christ must be feeling.
Whoopi Goldberg
What we're doing is not just about becoming a model. It's bigger than that. It's shining a spotlight on folks who know who they are. They know what they want to do. And in terms of modeling, they're already working. They know what they're doing! They're fantastic!
