"I was broke for a very long time, but I always believed in myself and believed in the work and knew I had something special, Sherald recalled. "And so I always tell young artists, the world is full of quitters, so don't quit and you'll eventually rise to the top. And here I am, tada."
–– Amy Sherald (b. 1973), American painter
