I don't think anyone is black and white and I think we change our minds and our attitudes about certain things as we grow to our maturity.

I can only control what I do. I can try to suggest and be open, but trust is the key.

I want a body of work; I want a good story after a good story.

There is a price to pay for most of our actions. For every action, there is a reaction.

There is a dream that the world could be at peace, but that requires that all the folks with arms disarm, or take over all the arms and allow us to trust them.

I try to be careful with my persuasiveness. When my heart is really behind it, and when I have no ulterior motive, then I know I’m truly persuasive.

I feel that our stories are cross culturally irrelevant, and I'm a member if a larger community of people who have no boundaries in terms of color or in terms of how I look at other people and their stories.
