When we come together and appreciate each other, that's always a positive thing; a step in the right direction. That is what the NAACP Image Awards do. If we can just come together and love each other, that's important. I do feel like there's a lack of love but oddly enough, we blame the lack of love on other people not loving and appreciating our accomplishments. But the real reality is we haven't loved and appreciated our own accomplishments.

The fulfilling of who you are and your purpose for being here is not found outside, it's trusting God to move you, to inspire you.

Once I committed to acting, this has been it.

If there's a steady paycheck in it, I'll believe anything you say.

There are those who spend their lives studying it and those who spend their lives doing it.

Every once in a while as an actor, you do something that the kids really like.

I'm old-school. I like action, but I want to see somebody fall in love. I want to see that life stuff.
