“In order to dream, you need to have a springboard which is the facts.....” — Janet Leigh Quote

“In order to dream, you need to have a springboard which is the facts... It gives it that touch of reality, and I think that's quite important... truth with fiction.”

“The dream factory of that time was much simpler. As media outlets grew, everything became so complicated.”

“People care about the perception we give off. And the perception Izzy gives off is that he's a superstar.”

“I always say, 'if you can see her, you can be her.' That's why I like playing on the platform I'm on because it gives another young Black girl the opportunity to say, 'if she can do it, so can I.' I try to relay that and help them realize that you are the light that someone needs.”

“Think only of the past as its remembrance gives you pleasure.”
