You don't go around grieving all the time but the grief is still there and always will be.

There is no grief like the grief that does not speak.

If there was less sympathy in the world there would be less trouble in the world.

I always envisioned myself being a rapper and being in the game and having success but you never know what it feels like or how you're going to be when you're there.

I've always been too hard on myself to behave like I've arrived or even to enjoy whatever success I've had. I've always envisioned myself higher than where I was and I still do. With each success I think 'That's nice but I'm supposed to go there!'

With the success of the last three or so years when a lot of people start treating you differently there's a danger that you may start to think of yourself differently. You rely on your friends to say 'Hey wake up!'

All these people who say success changes people well no it just magnifies what's there.

There's nothing so aphrodisiacal for a woman as money and success.

I think that my biggest attribute to any success that I have had is hard work. There really is no substitute for working hard.

There are so few women in general who aren't completely threatened and confused by other women's success. It's very disappointing.
