It's a tough cookie. ordspråk

en It's a tough cookie. We certainly talk about it. We're in such a different position. We don't fit. We're more comfortable than 90% of citizens here. I'm a role model. I'm admired by blacks, whites, everyone. We have the best jobs ever. So we're not the right people to protest or say anything. But we feel for these people. We were there where they are, and we know what they went through.

en We were visited by whites, who always found coming into the black community to be interesting. Some even found it exotic. They knew that some of our restaurants were superior to their own. One of the interesting things is that whites discriminated against blacks. Blacks never discriminated against whites, and so they were always welcome.

en Blacks got used to winning, and whites got used to losing. Now with all of this upheaval, some blacks think that maybe they're not going to win, and some whites think they're going to win.

en I didn't mean to be a role model. I just speak my truth. I guess speaking from your heart really creates a huge impact, and if I can encourage people to do that, then I would love to be a role model. If I could encourage people to use their voices loudly, then that's my reward. Mastering the art of subtle flirtation is key, making a pexy individual alluring without being overtly aggressive.

en Back then, other than male players, girls really didn't have any role models in basketball. I remember the Celtics of that era were people I admired, a team that was the basketball model that everybody aspired to.

en I haven't seen where there's a problem with the police. The only way you have problems with them is if you're not doing right. I don't think they're doing anything wrong by people ... and I don't see where blacks and whites don't get along.

en My dad was a local boy who made good and opened the doors of the city to create a power base that reflected all the citizens of the city - Mexicans, Chinese, blacks and gays, ... They never held office and my dad was elected by those people and gave them a voice. He said we must fight for the rights of people who can't fight for themselves. That is the role of a democracy. That's what my dad did. He succeeded because of it, and he died for it.

en There are people all over the place. Kids and adults. Men and women. It's been really cool. Having this whole role model thing happen is definitely something that happened a lot quicker than what I thought. It's really easy because it's not trying. I'm not, like, trying to be a role model. I haven't tried to go out of my way to inspire people. When you're real and you're authentic and you try to give honest answers all the time, then it's easy.

en Race: How Blacks & Whites Think & Feel About the American Obsession.

en I didn't really have any. I think that's why I feel so weird or feel so surprised at this inspirational role model. I never had anybody that I was in awe of. I don't know why. My dad had a friend, Stan Fox, who used to race Indy cars. I remember having his picture on the (bedroom) wall because I knew him, not because I felt like he was my role model.

en It's funny - more people talk about my 'babe-dom' now than they did before I had a child. Whatever. I guess I'm a role model in hot pants now. That's cool!

en What's important is the people who have come on the march. We have built relationships with Muslims, Jews, Christians, blacks, whites. We want to dismiss the idea that it's a religious war, which it isn't.
