Whoopi Goldberg
If you don't look out for others, who will look out for you?
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.
Whoopi Goldberg
I grew up in a time when it would never have occurred to anyone to tell me there was anything I couldn't do.
