I had to learn - since I'm divorced now and everyone is like, 'Oh my God, you're single, what's going on?' - that if I don't like to spend time with myself, how can I ask someone else to enjoy spending time with me? I'm getting to learn how to enjoy my solitude and have a good time.

If someone lacked decency or respect, I didn't allow that person to stay in my world.

I think there's a lot of things that occur within the African-American community, that we would prefer to stay within the African-American community - that we get a little nervous when you start having scenes or dialogue that we know is going to be viewed and heard on a national or global scale.

If my real life was half as exciting as what is reported, I would be thrilled.

I just kind of assumed that you do a movie and then you leave and you hop onto the next thing. I never thought that people are actually buddies.

I love TV. I love the stability of it.

If we can have drones, we can have brown people on TV, and the world won't end! We need to catch up. We are painfully behind.
