Nobody puts Roach in the corner.
I'm blowin' all the bullies away.
I stand up to people.
Nobody picks on a strong man.
Be sure of yourself, don't let anyone bully you, be a strong and independent woman or boy.
When I was younger, I was always that person that loved to get stuck in. When my mum and grandma used to come and watch me, I used to make sure that I wouldn't let anybody push me around and not let anybody bully me.
I guess I feel the most powerful when someone tries to take my power or belittle me or insult me, and it doesn't work.
I ain't got nothing to prove to nobody.
I don't see why I should bow my head when I could hold it high, or place it in the hands of my enemies when I can defeat them.
All my life I been doin' what people tell me to do. Now, I'm telling them.
Part of me relates to Perez Hilton because he's an outcast. I don't have a lot of friends who are actresses. They're catty, and they'll cut you down. I like that Perez is proud of who he is and doesn't care what anybody thinks.
I refuse to be pushed around anymore.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
No man bosses me around, and no man ever will.
I don't apologize to people who try to intimidate.
No one nor anything can silence me.
There are stereotypes - it's like an invisible line, but somehow you have to find the energy to be strong, to be super-confident, no matter if you are in front of the president of the U.S. or anyone else.
A lot of women are afraid of loneliness, so when they see a woman who can live alone, then they think, 'Hmm, I can do that.' But you need an example, and that is why I am proud to say I have divorced three husbands.
I wish I was harder; I wish I didn't care so much about being the nice girl all the time because a lot of the time people can take kindness for weakness, so I wish I had a little bit more 'oomph' in me.
I used to have a very difficult childhood because I was always the tallest girl in school, and everybody was staring at me and saying, 'You are very different.' Now, different is good.
They think because I'm small, they can do what they want to do to me. But I'm not weak. If I lower my shoulder and they lower they're shoulder, they're going to go down.
Having the courage to say no when all your friends are saying yes is one of the most difficult things you'll ever have to do. Doing it, however, is one of the biggest charges you can ever make to your personal battery. I call this 'won't power.'
I will not be triumphed over.
I will be dictated to by nobody. I'm the man. And if anyone can prove me wrong, their chance is inside a boxing ring. You don't like it, change the station.
I don't need anyone to validate me.
We refuse to live in fear.
