Text Quotes
I grew up in a funeral home. Both my parents were morticians.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I am always happy to use my song and dance training  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I believe that you can always learn from observation  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I took the whole college prep trajectory, and then in my senior year of high school, I decided that performing was something that I had always done as a kid, and I loved it... I said, ‘This makes people happy when I do this, I feel good, I get to pretend and explore other areas and learn so much’.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) We sit and read the paper in conjunction with having a little breakfast. Usually fruit salad, or I make myself a smoothie with rice milk, coconut water and yogurt.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I’m a rabid Steelers fan: I’m originally from Pittsburgh. So if the Giants or Pittsburgh are playing, the rest of Sunday is all about food and football.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I’ve been in this business a long time, and I’m very clear on what is real and what is fleeting.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) My Native American heritage was not embraced by our family, and we grew up African-American, so I didn’t have a lot of access or history to that line of my family.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I want to play Eva Peron. I’ve already done a lot of Shakespeare, but I’d like to do Lady Macbeth.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) All you have is yourself and what you have to present, and just focus on that. And if you can walk out of the audition and say to yourself, ‘I hit all my beats,’ ‘I accomplished my emotional honesty,’ or ‘I remembered my words,’ then that’s winning.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I’m always happy and most at home on the stage. I love film and television, but I love live performance... your immediacy with the audience, it makes all the difference in the world.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I just think there are enough hours in the day. If you just focus and dedicate yourself and approach each task as it presents itself, you can accomplish a lot.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I still enjoy doing the things I’ve always done, like going to a monthly dance party at a club downtown.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I’m Irish on St. Patrick’s Day. I’m Italian on Columbus Day. I’m a New Yorker every day.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I appreciate being able to give back to charities I care about such as the American Diabetes Association - my older sister passed away from diabetes - and Figure Skating in Harlem, which teaches young girls about confidence, focus and goal-setting.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) The first thing I do is brush my teeth - we like to start the morning with fresh breath - and put on my pajamas and meander down to the kitchen for a glass of orange juice. No coffee. No caffeine.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I grew up in a funeral home, born and raised, and everyone was always like, ‘Well, what was that like?’ and I was like, ‘It was normal’, because it’s all I knew.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I truly believe that when a person makes a concrete decision and takes action towards a goal that they’ve set, that the universe will step in and provide opportunities.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I’m all about the drugstore beauty products. They’re affordable and get the job done.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I was the first African-American woman to play Maggie in ‘Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.’ It was at the Virginia State Theatre, and we turned Richmond upside down.  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) When I first got to New York, all I did was musicals. After a few years I had to make a conscious choice to close the door on musicals, because I was getting pigeon-holed as a musical theater performer  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I always watch the work I do  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) I truly believe that when a person makes a concrete decision and takes action towards a goal they’ve set, that the universe will step in and provide opportunities  (Tamara Tunie Quotes) Show business is fickle, and though I have been blessed with a healthy career, who knows how long that will last?  (Tamara Tunie Quotes)
