It's a good time for me to pursue acting, I suppose since I'm enjoying having another medium in which to express myself. I've been getting a great response to my work.

Everything that I make I use.

There's nothing more that we love than having a close, personal, open relationship, and I believe that's what God wants.

There are so many people that don't believe in themselves and don't have faith.

My mom and dad would take me all over. One night we'd be at the Apollo watching James Brown, and then I'd be at the Joffrey Ballet. It was that kind of scene.

There's certain things in life that I love. One is architecture. And music, culture, food, people. New Orleans has all of that.

You need to open up so that more comes through. And you can just feel that when your ego is not in the way and when you're letting it be what it wants to be. You have to let it be what it wants to be as opposed to what you think it should be.
