“All of my close friends have been in my life for years. My best friends are all people I met in grade school, going back as far as 3rd grade.”

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.

However, I was very conscious of the fact that both sides of my family were drastically different and my aunts, cousins, and uncles varied in different shades of brown.

My hero among heroes is my grandmother, she’s the epitome of strength and I try to mock that strength all the time. She’s a beast.

You just have to be careful because social media can begin to affect personal things such as relationships, just to pin point. People have become so entitled as it relates to social media.

I love to love. However, you won’t see anybody walking the red carpet with me until I’m married.

Your life and everything about your world should be represented on your social media accounts, and everybody feels that way from family to friends to boyfriends and girlfriends.

I surround myself with strong willed, courageous personalities, because I’ve got to be coached by the best.

I do everything I can on a daily basis just so I can have something to give back to the world.

I’ve had people question my “integrity” based off of something I didn’t post on social media, the list goes on. It’s mind boggling.

I think I unknowingly seek people who are better than me in the sense of strength and wisdom. It’s like I’ve got to know and trust that you have the answers and that you can carry me if needed.

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.

My family has always had Cape Verdean pride but I don’t think it was something the kids in the family necessarily understood.

My friends are a crayola box. They highlight different colors of my being, representing different aspects of my personalty, I’ve noticed.

I think the hip-hop purists are purists through and through. They’re here to criticize all of us. That’s just how it is. We as MC’s criticize each other. That’s the nature of hip-hop.

I suppose a cry does us all good at times-clears the air as other rain does.

The infinity of All ever bringing forth anew, and even as infinite space is around us, so is infinite potentiality, capacity, reception, malleability, matter.

The main propoganda trick of supporters of the allegedly “progressive” policy of government control is to blame capitalism for all that is unsatisfactory in present-day conditions and to extol the blessings of socialism. They have never attempted to prove their fallacious dogmas.

When you put someone down all the time, eventually they stop listening to the sensible stuff.

There are about 30 words around you all the time, like ‘thread’ or ‘exit.’

All human problems are ultimately symptoms, and our separation from God is the cause.

The state reserves the right to be the sole interpreter of the needs of society.
