I think honestly, some people who think they're gay, they're confused. People can misconstrue closeness for love. People can feel connected, they bond. I'm not saying all [gay people are confused]. Some people have a desire to be with the same sex. But that's them. Stevie Wonder
I never want to get to the place where I’m so high and mighty I feel like I did it all, because I know I didn’t do it all. Tamela Mann
If other people try to tell you what’s acceptable when its comes to your sexuality, you have to call bullshit; last I checked, the only person my vagina was attached to was me, so anyone else’s opinions about that are unnecessary, uninvited and unwarranted. Gabrielle Union

Women must begin to write more truthfully about the profound mystery of sex. I think that race is also a mystery. Which is to say that neither can be fully comprehended except as deeply mysterious expressions through which we can learn profound lessons about life. It is almost impossible not to learn something about yourself in the sexual act. So it's important for women to be alert to the spiritual growth and self-discovery they can attain by paying close attention to their sexuality. Alice Walker

I just turned it over to the Lord and put it in His hands and that's how I deal with it. Cookie Johnson
I am more than just a label. Why are people so driven to labeling where we fall on the sexual spectrum? Labels put people in boxes, and those boxes are shaped like coffins. Finding the right person can be so hard that often, when a person finally finds someone she or he is comfortable with, she or he just makes it work. Chirlane McCray
My mom has always taught me and my siblings the Word, and I don’t know what I would do without my faith and strong beliefs. Gabrielle Douglas
I'm my greatest teacher and within me I have the power to push myself deeper and higher. Lorraine Toussaint
My faith has kept me sane really, in all honesty. I’ve been around people who decided to do drugs and alcohol and I chose a different path. I just felt like there was something better for me. Tamela Mann
I ran toward the Lord because I knew there was no power bigger than His. I knew that if I ran toward God, He would help me. He had all the power. Cookie Johnson
God lives within me. I meditate, I pray. I'm nothing without God. So, I just ask that He use me in my work. Taraji P. Henson
