“Love yourself. Just love yourself. In fact, the love of the self cures every kind of problem you have with yourself. For instance, if someone calls you nappy-headed, it rolls right off your body, if you love nappy hair. Or if someone calls you buck-toothed or too black, that won't be a problem if you love being buck-toothed or black. If you love it, then so what. The development of self-love cures many of the ills that people suffer from.” PeopleIfsKindSelfFactsProblemBodySufferingBlackLove IsLove YouHairDevelopmentSelf LoveYour BodyCuresInstanceLove YourselfBucksJust Love YourselfNappies Author:Alice Walker
