I was raised with a sense of entrepreneurship - my father owned a roofing business, and I grew up with the idea that you never want someone telling you what you can and cannot do.

For me, Christmas is about family, loving, forgiveness, compassion, understanding and comradery.

I'm a poet. I'm just a renaissance man in my heart. I can build shelves and I can write poetry.

I did this movie with Spike Lee called Sucker Free City, and that would have to be my favorite role by far. It was just so much fun to work with Spike and shoot in San Francisco.

I just don't understand how people can get so caught up in having their picture taken.

As actors, the great thing about our career is we get to change from role to role. I don't want to be known as "put him in the movie because he has nice abs" guy.

I'm a firm believer in people who love what they do.
