Pam Grier People Quotations

Each time you do a film you gain a lot of experience and build a visual resume where people get to know who you are.

My people were homesteading in Colorado before Emancipation.

Driving a cab is not really a nurturing type of relationship. You take people and they tip you, they may not tip you, you don't know their names, they don't care about you, you don't care about them.

I love working with a lot of different films and a lot of different people.

Showtime is a very good venue that shows a lot of people who might not get to theaters but would see it on cable.

Today, many people are engaging in same sex relationships and saying they are not gay.

Yeah, but people aren't comfortable with a woman who looks very masculine or rides a motorcycle or wears leather or has facial hair or has short hair.

Everyone knows me at Lowe's and Home Depot. I wanted a chainsaw in pink, but I had to settle for red. People are always asking me how I keep my skin so soft. I tell them, 'I'm frozen all winter.' I'm probably 82 and just don't know it. The poor manicurists on the show scream when they see me coming.

I love working on The L Word because it's entertaining yet political. We're asking real, valid questions, and we're lifting the veil on the lives of a group of people who haven't been seen on television before.
