“Every group has its time. Nobody reigns forever, except Michael Jackso...” — Pepa Quote

Every group has its time. Nobody reigns forever, except Michael Jackson. So, you've gotta be ready for that - and be wise about what you're doing.

Don't rationalize or internalize abusive behavior, because love doesn't hurt.

The guys love us - they think we're sexy - but the girls take us seriously... I've always said that when I was a teenager growing up, I wish I had girls like Salt-n-Pepa to look up to. If I'd had someone I could relate to, a lot of things would probably be different.

Onstage, we're very dominant and aggressive. But we laugh and play a lot, too.

We all have little sisters and cousins who look up to us, and we see what they go through. So we have to be an example. A lot of artists come into this business and they don't see things that way. But as you get older - and now that we also have children - your conscience starts working on you.

It's kind of like I'm Phil Spector, and I'm forcing a young girl to make pop music and perform exhaustively. Except, instead of it being someone else, that girl is also me.

I wouldn't do really gratuitous nudity. When I was in my late teens, you'd read stuff and be like, 'That character serves no purpose except being naked', so that would not be something I'd want to do. It's pointless for me.

Man can learn nothing except by going from the known to the unknown.

No man can be a politician, except he be first a historian or a traveller; for except he can see what must be, or what may be, he is no politician.
