My mom has made it possible for me to be who I am. Our family is everything. Her greatest skill was encouraging me to find my own person and own independence.

We value men more than women... straight love more than gay love... white skin more than black skin... and adults more than adolescents.

I think a sense of humor is a very personal thing, and I don't know if I am talented enough to do romantic comedies.

I'm always open to a relationship, but I'm not putting those feelers out there now.

My job as an actor, and the part of my job that I love is the transforming-and-becoming aspect of it, and so it doesn't become about me anymore.

I havent lost my culture, just my accent.

When they watch a movie and they know that you're in a relationship, you just kind of watch that constantly.
