To Succeed, One Must Be Creative And

When I See A Barrier, I Cry And I Curse, And Then I Get A Ladder And Climb Over It.

When I Go In To See People - And I Sell An Occasional Ad Now - I Never Say, 'help Me Because I Am Black' Or 'help Me Because I Am A Minority.' I Always Talk About What We Can Do For Them.

I Believe The Greater The Handicap, The Greater The Triumph.

I Would Tell Young People To Start Where They Are With What They Have And That The Secret Of A Big Success Is Starting With A Small Success And Dreaming Bigger And Bigger Dreams, I Would Tell Them Also That A Young Black Woman Or A Young Black Man Can't Dream Too Much Today Or Dare Too Much If He Or She Works Hard, Perseveres And Dedicates Themselves To Excellence.

Failure Is A Word I Don't Accept.
