Growing up I didn't watch movies.

Dakota Fanning is a child, but she is a wonderful actor. I don't know what a child actor is. She's an actor who's a child.

The poorest people are the sweetest people.

I'm not a film buff. I don't watch a lot of movies.

I believe in God. I don't fear man, I fear God.

I had the kid [on "Fences" ] who understudied me so I could stand back and think about shots so he had to learn the blocking and everything. I'd come in early sometimes, and they 'd be in there rehearsing and working on their stuff. I didn't want them to feel like, "Oh these are people who can't be touched." We're all working actors; we're all trying to get better.

It's not what you know, it's what you can prove.
