I Was Very Shy. I'm Still Shy.

When I Look Into The Crowd, I See Young And Old, Black And White - It's Amazing That I'm Able To Connect With So Many Different Kinds Of People.

When You Take Your Troubles To God, You May Have Them But They Don't Have You.

I Want To Be Remembered As A Woman Who Was Fair And Always Gave 150 Percent, No Matter What I Did.

I Keep Showing Decade After Decade That I Am A Real Performer.

I Truly Respect The People Who Are Working. If They Want An Autograph From Patti Labelle, They Are Going To Get It. I Have Never Separated Myself From Them. I Never Think You Are Better Than The Next One.
