“Trust is learning how you feel about yourself,not how others feel about you.Do you trust how you feel.If not, why.”

“Feelings are your guide. Trust your feelings and learn to express them, and do not blame anyone for how you feel. Be yourself, observe yourself. Look to understand any crisis you have been in or will be in.”

“But if you feel better about how you present yourself to the world, how you feel about you, inside and out, I don't see the shallow in that.”

“As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.”

“Someone likes you based not on how he feels about you but on how you make him feel about himself.”

“Well, feel this, why don't you? Feel how it feels to have a bed to sleep in and somebody there not worrying you to death about what you got to do each day to deserve it. Feel how that feels. And if that don't get it, feel how it feels to be a colored woman roaming the roads with anything God made liable to jump on you. Feel that.”
