" I’ve heard people say, ‘Why do you have to do a show that’s called ‘Black Girls Rock’?’ or ‘Why is there an expression called ‘black girl magic’?’ You know, when you say, ‘Save the dolphins,’ you don’t mean, ‘I don’t like whales.’ That’s just not the way it works! " - Tracee Ellis Ross

" I used to literally collect friends that had hair like me. And it would start like this: ‘What kind of products do you use?’ " - Tracee Ellis Ross

" There’s no way you can go home and learn lines, because you need to go home and sleep. So I’ve figured out systems. I order two lunches so I can eat dinner before I leave work, so when I get home, I can just go to bed. " - Tracee Ellis Ross

" As a woman of color, we’re raised to know we have to be twice as good. " - Tracee Ellis Ross
