Rosie Perez Quote

Everyone was like 'Oh, you'd be a perfect Frankie, she's a working-class girl, ta da da da da,' and I was like 'I don't get her. She gave up. That's not me. That has never been me.' It took me a minute to figure out who she was. I was like 'Well, how come she doesn't have any joy in her life? How come she gave up?' I had a rough life too, and I didn't give up, and I have joy.
