“I don’t think it’s funny when people stuff pillows in their clothing to look like me. I don’t think it’s funny when people paint their faces to look like me. I don’t think it’s funny when a stranger calls me a fat bi*!h no matter what they’re offering to do for me. I don’t think it’s funny that I’m not allowed to say that my feelings are hurt. Feelings aren’t an absence of strength. I know this for sure. So why should I pretend to have a sense of humor just to allow someone else to take a sot at me?” -Gabourey Sidibe
