True leadership is when you are willing to risk your power and voice so that all of ours can be heard.

I grew up in Tennessee where you either play football or you don't do anything at all. So I was a bit of loner, being interested in music.

As an actor, it's your job to find the way to play a character. I think you can latch on to some things that might have happened.

I kiss people with my soul. I don't kiss them with my mouth.

I'm completely removed from any hype that comes my way.

Your critics do not count. Their words will fade. You won't.

"Celebrity" is sort of an idea. I mean, I get to do something extraordinary, but I don't think it makes me extraordinary. That's my opinion. I like to be an artist, I like to do things that are involved in the arts, but I don't think it makes me more special than a doctor, for example. A doctor is an extraordinary person. Doctors should be celebrities. We just entertain people. They save lives.
