My mom is a beautiful, amazing woman. We didn't have a ton of money growing up, and even, at one point, we were living on food stamps. But my mom still managed to make sure we ate healthy and were always fed nutritious meals!

Women are strong, and we're way too hard on ourselves.

I signed with Big Yellow Dog and have been with them for years. The president of the company is a woman named Carla Wallace, who is an amazing publisher who just has a knack for female artists.

Eric and I have a pact. Offseason, we focus on my career. And during the season, I try to be the best wifey. I make sure he has a warm dinner to come home to.

Technological society has succeeded in multiplying the opportunities for pleasure, but it has great difficulty in generating joy.

Even now, most people call me Joy or Joe Lee or Joey. It's all fine with me. The only time I correct them is when they refer to me as Spike Lee's sister.

I just want other people to know the kind of joy that I have in my life. I want other people to be able to have fun.

Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it.
