More quotes by Whoopi Goldberg
For some reason, all artists have self-esteem issues.
Whoopi Goldberg
I think because I've gotten permission from my style icons like Tim Gunn and André Leon Talley, who say to me, You don't need to dress like anyone else, because you're your own fashion icon. You represent comfortable. And you do fashion your way, and you should be at Fashion Week. They gave me permission to enjoy it! And it's great!
Whoopi Goldberg
Normal is just a cycle on the washing machine.
Whoopi Goldberg
I don't think in terms of failure....I don't feel like anyone outside of me should be setting limitations. People should be encouraged to shoot for the moon.
Whoopi Goldberg
You know what? I think the American people are a little pissed, and I think they're pissed at both parties - I think they're really pissed at both parties - and it will be reflected during election time.
Whoopi Goldberg
I eat eight bags of chips in one sitting, and then nothing for a day or two. I learned that my body thought it was starving, so it would hold on to fat.
Whoopi Goldberg
Just call me black, if you want to call me anything.
Whoopi Goldberg
My mother's great. She has the major looks. She could stop you from doing anything, through a closed door even, with a single look. Without saying a word, she has that power to rip out your tonsils.
Whoopi Goldberg
[On writing to Alice Walker, author of The Color Purple:] I told her I would play a Venetian blind, dirt on the floor, anything.
Whoopi Goldberg
You couldn't always trust the history books. They told a diluted truth, a truth by committee.
Whoopi Goldberg
Most of all, I dislike this idea nowadays that if you're a black person in America, then you must be called African-American. Listen, I've visited Africa, and I've got news for everyone: I'm not an African.
Whoopi Goldberg
If there wasn't something called acting, they would probably hospitalize people like me.
Whoopi Goldberg
I am the American Dream. I am the epitome of what the American Dream basically said. It said you could come from anywhere and be anything you want in this country. That's exactly what I've done.
Whoopi Goldberg
[On her monologue as the thief 'Fontaine':] People always got things. People always want things. So I provide a service.
Whoopi Goldberg
I always wore sneakers when I wanted to. It was always about being comfortable and being myself.
Whoopi Goldberg
[The original Sister Act] is running all over the world now, on-stage as a musical. It lives!
Whoopi Goldberg
We're here for a reason. I believe a bit of the reason is to throw little torches out to lead people through the dark.
Whoopi Goldberg
I'd like everyone to imagine a world where you get a job as Tom, and then the next day you're Tina. Imagine you're in the world where you love what you do, but people say that you can't be who you are.
Whoopi Goldberg
The people who can be helping to make movies that have blacks and Latinos and women and all that - that movie doesn't come to you. Because the idea is that there's no place for black movies.
Whoopi Goldberg
I fear waking up one morning and finding out my life was all for nothing. We're here for a reason. I believe a bit of the reason is to throw little torches out to lead people through the dark. When you're kind to someone in trouble, you hope they remember and are kind to someone else and so on. Soon it will be like a wildfire.
Whoopi Goldberg
