Everybody loves you when you're six foot in the ground.
It doesn't matter how long my hair is or what colour my skin is or whether I'm a woman or a man.

He didn't come out of my belly, but my God, I've made his bones, because I've attended to every meal, and how he sleeps, and the fact that he swims like a fish because I took him to the ocean. I'm so proud of all those things. But he is my biggest pride.
