Whoopi Goldberg
You've got to vote for someone. It's a shame, but it's got to be done.
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
I have the strangest time to get cast in anything. 'Ghost' was the same thing. Six months I had to wait for them to decide they had seen everybody possible. Why not? What limits me? I'm black? Oh, am I black?
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.

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
I believe that parts of people like John Garfield and Moms Mabley, the parts of them that I needed to be able to do what I'm doing, came into me. There's a very nice feeling that there are many, many spirits inside of me looking after me . . .
Whoopi Goldberg
Normal is in the eye of the beholder.
Whoopi Goldberg
I'm fighting the label of 'Black' actress simply because it's very limiting in people's eyes, especially people who are making movies.
Whoopi Goldberg

Whoopi Goldberg
I am an artist, art has no color and no sex.
Whoopi Goldberg
Sitting at the table during Color Purple and looking up and suddenly realizing I was acting in front of Steven Spielberg, was pretty cool. It was pretty good.
Whoopi Goldberg
[On lightweight movies:] Fun movies. They were never meant to cure cancer, only to take away the mind.
Whoopi Goldberg
There are roles I am never considered for. Meryl Streep roles, let's say. Why not? I really wanted to do 'Ironweed,' for example, because the depression era in this country was one of the best for multiracial people, because everybody was poor. Everybody lived in the tents, and under buildings, and under gratings, together.
Whoopi Goldberg
No matter what you say to yourself, you do want to win. You try to look casual, like you're not thinking, 'oh, please pick me.'
Whoopi Goldberg
I think the idea that you know who your inner self is on a daily basis, because... you know. What's good for you 25 years ago may not be good for you now. So, to keep in touch with that, I think that's the first ingredient for success. Because if you're a successful human being, everything else is gravy, I think.
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
We have a lot of trans friends. We know lots of people who have been trying to [model] we know a lot about it.
