I don't know a single person in life that doesn't have conflict. I don't really enjoy acting enough to not want to experience something that feels like it really affects things. It's like, if you were a surfer, would you want to surf where there was like two-foot waves, or would you want to surf on like ten-foot waves. To me, the more kind of dramatic stories are more exciting for me, to play with.

How can you work in film and still see the overt racism that exists in film and not just be furious all the time?

My dissatisfaction with acting has nothing to do with being uncomfortable or vulnerable or feeling like people are going to criticize me. That's not the problem.

Together, we can make a U.S. Department of Peace into a reality, and leave a gift of peace for generations to come.

As a nation, this is the moment to start seriously investing our time, energy and resources into proven methods of reducing violence, both within our nation as well as internationally. The cost of violence to our culture and our children is simply not sustainable.

I enjoy humour more than anything, I don't really sit around banging my head and crying all the time.

Every movie soaks into you for a certain amount of time.
