I think, in a lot of ways, celebrities represent the American dream. They have financial fluidity and options at their disposal.

Happiness doesn't come from commercial success but from the quality of work that you give back to your immediate community.

I'm one with New York, and New York is one with me. I grew up there; there's no escaping it. We're like Siamese twins, if you separate us, I'll die.

There's never a better way of living than just improving our quality of life.

You can't expect people to do the right thing or else they will go to hell. We are already in hell!
