“All of my friends are independent in thought, that’s important.”

The difference lies in the intention behind wanting money. Your reasons for why you want to create more money is typically why you’re ambitious to get it. You’re either genuinely ambitious or selfishly hungry.

Super-stardom doesn’t scare or excite me. It’s just another ingredient added to my world.

I’ve had friends get mad at me for not posting what they think I should post on Instagram on behalf of them or our relation.

I didn’t truly understand the depth of my roots until I was old enough to wonder and care.

Everyone has a different route to success, recognition, and peace. Don’t be afraid to move instinctually.

I admire many women that have come before me, heavy influencers such as Oprah, such as Beyoncé, and I’m witnessing the fruit of their work and experiencing their legacy now and they’re not even close to the finish line.

Even if it’s something so simple as filling myself up with uplifting meditation so it’s easier to spread kindness and love by the time I walk out my door and enter the world.

If your not broadcasting how much you love your boyfriend or husband via social media, problems occur in the home and I really think this is happening more than we acknowledge.

I acknowledge that we are all human and are on a journey. We are not born perfect, mistakes are inevitable.

Life would continue to exist and grow. Cause and effect still exist even where there is no time.

If you’re not broadcasting what people feel is their truth as it relates to you, well that becomes a problem.

People automatically assume and expect that every moment and every bit of personal data should be broadcasted on social media, especially as it relates to them – and thats just not cuttin’ it for me.

I was pretty much predominantly raised by women, as they make up most of my family anyway.

I think friends are an extension of you and I always say, check out a persons five immediate friends and you’ll know everything about them.

I was drawn into acting due to the fact that I could express myself better.

Most people have no idea what Cabo Verde is or even where it is to mention, so I definitely want to make people aware of this beautiful culture.

The most important thing of all is my parents were able to leave all four of their children better off than themselves. That story has a name, it’s called the American dream.

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation. War is hell.

We cut him off and there was nowhere for him to go but out of bounds … It’s still the greatest move I’ve ever seen in basketball, the all-time greatest.

Except for memory, time would have no meaning at all.

Morning is when I do all my best work.

Laughter is the only strategy that has ever worked at all for me when my world is falling apart.

I’m a basketball player. That’s what I do and what I love but that’s just not all who I am. I’m talented in a lot of different areas.

All I do is sit at home and watch Netflix.
