“And I always felt glad. And I heard Steve Harvey say one time that God put that in his imagination when he was 10. The teacher wanted them to get up and say, what do you want to be when you grow up? And he said, I'm going to be on television. And she made fun of him. And he said, I was so devastated, but because I knew this was, he said, I know God must have put this in my imagination. What 10-year-old would?”

“And I thought, I have an audience I need to tap. And I had no tab shoes or anything like that. We lived so far out, so rural that I never got to take any dance classes or anything. And then I projected that onto my children later and made them take every lesson that I could get a man. But I put on a little shoe and started to do a dance routine. I had a whole dance routine made up. I had a whole thing and I danced for that poor man.”

“That was an artist, honey, with long hair. I tell everybody it looks like my sister, but he had a bicycle that had a sticker on it that said burn fat, not oil. He didn't have a car. I had the car. He was beautiful, and he could dance and he was emotional.”

“And the waitress came up to me and I said, I don't have any money to pay for this. And she said, honey, it's okay. I know or I get it or something. Something in her face. I knew she had been through something bad, and I feel like that was one of those gone moments where He sent her to me, and it was a sign like, okay, you need to get out. I'm shutting this door and this part of your life, we're getting out and moving on.”

“Yes, and I don't even remember when he got so mad at me for, but I walked on eggshells for the three years I was married to him, and it was so volatile. I just didn't know from day to day what was going to happen. And it was Christmas time, and he got mad over something and walked off and left me in a restaurant, no cell phone. I had no money.”

“Oh, I still love them. Short being, I don't care. I've always been fascinated by it. But Evan was the one and I married at 21. And I want to say this, that this is one thing that I pride myself on. I remember him saying to me, he was very verbally abusive. And he said, and he was probably, I don't know, insecure and intimidated and wanted to bring me down. But he said, people are making fun of you the way you talk, and you need diction lessons. And I remember thinking, there was a lot of things that I took to heart that he said and that damaged me, but that was the one thing that I thought he's wrong. This is who I am and I'm going to be who I am and I'm not going to change that. And I'm glad I didn't. I think that has helped me through my life. But anyway.”

“Yes, you're right about that, Oprah. You look at the positive side. Yes. But I do too. I went writing that. I would grieve for that little girl, 20, 21 Flailing. Know making horrible decisions. And I wish I could go back and say to her it's going to be all right. Everything's going to be all right. But I'd say from like 17 to 24, I was a loose cannon. I mean, it was a booker. Time? Well, you know, I got married. I know really young”

“No, I didn't listen to anybody, but I remember watching your talk show and one you said one day and I laughed until I cried. You said, I dated some men that didn't even, that couldn't read. They didn't know who the president was”

“Well, thank you. That means the world to me. Well, I got to tell you, I've got a literary agent, and he said to me, when I started the book, I wanted to tell every horrible thing that ever happened to me, all my sin in the 80s. Ever horrible. And I have done some... And he on my sin. And he goes, hey, honey, you're not Joan Crawford yet. He goes, let's do a book that introduces you to the world and then maybe a cookbook and then you can tell your sin. So someday I want to tell all my sin. But I did tell a little bit of it. You did.”
