Quotes from the same author
When I was a kid, my mother told me that if you could not be a good loser, then there's no way you could be a good winner.
Halle Berry
Career is important, but nothing really supersedes my roles as a mother.

Halle Berry
I would say a magical thing happened on when the big 40th birthday came. I felt like a light kind of just went off, and maybe that's because I felt like at 40 I had the right to say and be who I wanted to be, say what I wanted to say, and accept what I didn't want to accept.
Halle Berry
My mother never wanted me to focus on my physical self. She always said that beauty is what you do.
Halle Berry
