Danielle Brooks: Dr. Lillie Carter-Grant

Quotes 

• Karma Grant : Mom, I messed up. I was trying so hard to make everybody happy as president, but I didn't do what I wanted to do.

  Dr. Lillie Carter-Grant : Oh, honey, I know the feeling. You say yes to this, and you say yes to that. Next thing you know, you've yessed yourself into a mess. Karma, you don't have to do what everyone wants you to.

  Karma Grant : But what if the other kids don't like me anymore?

  Dr. Lillie Carter-Grant : You're the president. It's not your job to give everyone exactly what they want. It's your job to make a positive difference.

  Karma Grant : [sighs]  I don't have much more time, though. Isn't it too late?

  Dr. Lillie Carter-Grant : It's never too late.
