Whenever I go out, so many people who respect me ask me what to do in a certain situation. A lot of times, I didn't know the answers because sometimes I was going through the same sort of thing. But then later on, I would think of things that people told me.

I truly respect the people who are working. If they want an autograph from Patti LaBelle, they are going to get it. I have never separated myself from them. I never think you are better than the next one.

It's a sweet thing, faith. With it, you can handle any circumstance, any crisis, because you know God always has your back. And when God is for you, who can be against you? Nobody. As my Aunt Hattie says, 'One and God are a majority.'

Patti LaBelle 87 quotes

There is nothing more personal...

There is nothing more personal than your values. What you will and won't do to get ahead, the lines you will and won't cross to win, whom you will and won't step on for personal gain, are at the very core of your code of honor. And your code of honor determines your character. And your character is who you are. Behind closed doors. When nobody is watching.

Patti LaBelle 87 quotes

Peace of mind just can't be bo...

Peace of mind just can't be bought. Trust me: Even if your conscience doesn't stop you from playing dirty to get what you want, once you get it, it will keep you from enjoying it. As my mother used to say, 'A good conscience is God's eye.' Which is why I always prefer a loss to an underhanded gain; the one brings pain at the moment, the other for all time.

Patti LaBelle 87 quotes

Always respect yourself and do...

Always respect yourself and don't go out there disrespecting yourself.

Patti LaBelle 87 quotes

As Aunt Naomi was listing all ...

As Aunt Naomi was listing all the things she was going to do to help this person, her friend stopped her in mid-sentence. 'Naomi, girl,' she said, 'you need to resign as general manager of the universe. You need to learn that sometimes the best way to help a person is to let them help themselves. Otherwise, they never learn how. And they are always going to make their problems your problems.'
