Sherri Shepherd Quotes 240955

I think it's harder to forgive ourselves for mistakes that we made because we keep dwelling on it. We want to know how it affects other people, if they liked us for it, if they didn't like us.

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 1270640

Realizing that the majority of kids that get molested feel that it is their fault, along with shame, those kids have no idea what to say or do to try to report anything, and add that with the lack of education, it is a complete recipe for disaster that leads to non-reporting of molestation. — Sherri Shepherd

My dad has been married to his wife for 15 years and wherever he goes there better be a seat for her.

With me being in so many pain from when you have a betrayal from your best friend - who was my husband - and the girl got pregnant, I couldn't even get out of bed.

I love being married. — Sherri Shepherd

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 561074

Go to a wig store with your girlfriends, never by yourself. You need someone to say, 'Girl that looks good!' You need someone to encourage you to try pieces on.

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 1394627

For me, wigs and hairpieces are an everyday part of my life. One day I can wear what I like to call my 'Back to you, Barbara' look - professional and full of layers - and the next day you may see me in my 'Bubblin' Brown Sugar' look - curly, fun and bubbly. — Sherri Shepherd

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 772875

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 1013632

I just don't believe in abortion, period. But I would never take away a woman's right to choose what's good for her body.

So I don't think people think about that. — Sherri Shepherd

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 1032026

When I was little I went to a Baptist Church with my grandmother. My earliest memories were of her falling out in the middle of the floor and they had to cover her with a white sheet.

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 1187146

If it wasn't for my trainer - who comes looking for me three times a week before 7 A.M. - I wouldn't get my butt out of bed and into the gym. There are many mornings when I think about faking a sprained ankle, but I just put it out of my head and make myself go. — Sherri Shepherd

I believe God has called His people to be a light in darkness. — Sherri Shepherd

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 1283811

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 1309999

I love the entire process of being on the set and being able to create a character. It's so much fun. In 'Think Like a Man,' I have a very small part.

Sherri Shepherd Quotes 1373418

I have so much hair; I have a separate wig closet in my house. — Sherri Shepherd
