One of the processes of your life is to constantly break down that inferiority, to constantly reaffirm that I Am Somebody.

I'm attracted to long-legged girls with long arms and a little head.

Money is a never-ending problem.

In this business, life is one long fund-raising effort.

Nothing personal; I just don't have people over.

My lasting impression of Truman Capote is that he was a terribly gentle, terribly sensitive, and terribly sad man.

Sometimes you feel bad about yourself when there's no reason to.

We still spend more time chasing funds than we do in the studio in creative work.

I always want more.

I always want to have more dancers in my company.

It will take very sophisticated marketing to achieve our aim of bringing more black people into the theater.

Dance is for everybody. I believe that the dance came from the people and that it should always be delivered back to the people.

The creative process is not controlled by a switch you can simply turn on or off; it's with you all the time.

Choreography is mentally draining, but there's a pleasure in getting into the studio with the dancers and the music.

Lena Horne is the sweetest and most adorable woman in the world.

I am trying to show the world that we are all human beings and that color is not important. What is important is the quality of our work.

One of the worst things about racism is what it does to young people.

If you live in the elite world of dance, you find yourself in a world rife with racism. Let's face it.

Racism tears down your insides so that no matter what you achieve, you're not quite up to snuff.

No matter what you write or choreograph, you feel it's not enough.

My feelings about myself have been terrible.

The woman who thinks she is intelligent demands equal rights with men. A woman who is intelligent does not.

But even with a character like Cary who is relatively outlandish, at the end of the movie he's in a place where I wouldn't have expected him to be - taking on the responsibility of a woman who is pregnant and who used to be his best friend's wife.

Let me first state that I believe that marriage is a sacred union between one man and one woman.

I believe that if a man does a job as well as a woman, he should be paid as much.

A woman is the only thing I am afraid of that I know will not hurt me.

What becomes a crime deserving capital punishment when the tables are turned is a matter of small moment when the negro woman is the accusing party.

There is a neurologist, a woman over at Harvard who wanted me to come talk to them, and in France I have a lot of readers in the sciences. I can't tell you why.

A woman who thinks she is intelligent demands the same rights as man. An intelligent woman gives up.

I come here not as a polished politician but as a woman who has had her fair share of life's knocks.

Once made equal to man, woman becomes his superior.

We say of an animal that it is intelligent, and we say the same thing of a woman; but in neither case is it usually appropriate, clearly for very different reasons.

I think the fact that I'm so well known to be gay makes it very difficult to have a convincing relationship with a woman on screen. It wouldn't be at all difficult for me to kiss a woman - I'll kiss a frog if you like.

The world over, give a guy money and it goes to drinking, gambling, and women. When you give a woman money, it goes to feeding, clothing, helping people.

I would not like to be the only woman on the court.

There is no corner too quiet, or too far away, for a woman to make sorrow in it.

If he didn't fall in love he would have never come back near the end of the film. Because, what man is going to dishonor himself so that he comes back in front of the man that took a woman away from him... and warns her to save her life?

Men should think twice before making widow hood woman's only path to power.

Being the first woman speaker and breaking the marble ceiling is pretty important. Now it's time to move on.

Man can never be a woman's equal in the spirit of selfless service with which nature has endowed her.

I expect Woman will be the last thing civilized by Man.
