There are plenty of reasons to love Uzo Aduba (http://www.popsugar.com/celebrity/Uzo-Aduba-Pictures-GIFs-36722625). She gives the best pep talks (http://www.popsugar.com/celebrity/Uzo-Aduba-Best-Advice-40128598), makes inspiring award show speeches (http://www.popsugar.com/entertainment/Uzo-Aduba-SAG-Awards-Acceptance-Speech-2016-40002961), and slays season after season (http://www.popsugar.com/entertainment/Orange-New-Black-Crazy-Eyes-GIFs-35240279) as Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren on Orange Is the New Black. On top of all that, Uzo's cover story in Essence's September issue (http://www.essence.com/2016/08/03/uzo-aduba-dazzles-september-issue-essence) is chock-full of quotes that will make you want to punch your fist in the air. The Emmy winner (http://www.popsugar.com/entertainment/Uzo-Aduba-Emmy-Acceptance-Speech-2015-Video-38495850) touches on everything from perseverance in a difficult industry to how she maintains her self-esteem, all of which we can add to her long list of encouraging quotes (http://www.popsugar.com/celebrity/Uzo-Aduba-Quotes-Darling-Magazine-Winter-2015-39079526):
On the time she almost quit acting: "There have been times in my life where I have doubted, questioned, felt tired, but I had never quit before in my core. My heart never quit. And that was the first time I felt my heart give out on me."
On her elated reaction to hearing she'd been cast as Crazy Eyes: "I lost my mind. I'm running around my apartment crying. I was like, 'You don't understand. I just quit.' And my agent quoted The Godfather line: 'Just when you thought you were out, they pull you back in.'"
On why people can't get e**ugh of Orange Is the New Black: "People were thirsty, but they didn't even k**w what they were thirsty for until they saw our show. They wanted stories that felt inclusive of their existence, where they could see themselves . . . I never imagined a Bantu k**t-wearing woman named Crazy Eyes would do all of this. Definitely **t."
On her self-worth: "This business will try to convince you that you're **t e**ugh. That you're **t pretty e**ugh, thin e**ugh, talented e**ugh, interesting e**ugh, experienced e**ugh, and I say, 'E**ugh. E**ugh with that!' Who are you to tell me that I am **t e**ugh when I k**w that I am more than e**ugh? I can**t subscribe to anyone else's idea of how I am meant to look, what size I am meant to be, whether I have a gap in my teeth, how I'm supposed to behave, what your idea of what my black womanhood is supposed to look like. **. This is me. I am just Uzo. I can't be anything other than that, and I don't want to be."
