- Rain was able to perform pieces of her one woman show for her father in his hospital room, but he was never able to get to the theatre to see her show. Since she acts as him in scenes, she acted out the parts for him, and asked his permission to use his old material. After seeing her perform it, he gave her his approval, and the show went on.

- Rain: I'm not a model and I don't want to be a model, I'm an actor. It's just horrible. That's the card that has been dealt me and that's who I am. I am a unique beauty. I don't want to look like everybody else. I don't want to fit the cookie cutter mold.

- Rain: I had no self-esteem earlier in my life. I am a co-dependent-I drank because, if you drank,I drank. I lost everything I owned in a relationship. I lost a house, a fancy car, a bank account, because I was like 'What can I buy for youu in order for you to stay with me?' I really had to learn that I could love myself as I am, that I didn't have to be Halle Berry to be beautiful and feel good about my life.

- Rain: Just because I'm a Pryor doesn't mean that I'm a standup comedian. I'm funny, but I'm not a standup by any means. I sing, I do many things...I really do consider myself John Leguizamo meets Bette Midler!
