Quote

In school, I learned about artists and how they were free to express themselves. I was allergic to conformity, and the lifestyle attracted me. I wanted to express myself in a way that slammed people up against the wall.

I tell students and young professionals all the time to follow their hearts, do what they truly love, and if it's business, run it by being grounded in ethical consciousness.

I'm a passionate individual, and sometimes when I have strong feelings about a subject, I feel the need to express myself.

I want everyone to express themselves in a unique way.

Expressing myself through language was always something that I had had to learn to do more so than others.

Writing is my primary way of expressing myself.

Self-expression must pass into communication for its fulfillment.

I'm a kid who grew up in an all African-American neighborhood and got into schools and aspired to just be me, and didn't worry about labels or anything. Just wanted to be a success at what I did.

I went for an outrageous form of expressing myself. It seemed to be a way that I could make my name and show that I was somebody.

I think it started since I was born, I always had a need to express myself, you know, as a human being, and I found that it felt right when I expressed myself through art, dance, through acting, so it kind of happened naturally.
