As an actor, I'll play anything.

Do I believe in God? Yes I do. When you've had a life like mine, you have to.

Since I was 19, I've had the most fun possible every single day, even when I had a rough life. It was the army which taught me about life, and the theater which taught me how good it could be.

What a lot of people dont realize about gangs, in my opinion, is that a gang is not there to attack you. Eighty percent of the people in a gang are there to stop anyone from attacking them. You join a gang for protection, not to go out and hit someone.

To be a movie star, you have to invent yourself.

I come from the slums; I come from a hard background; I come from a poor family; and I was a soldier.

I learn the whole time. I think it would be dull if I thought I was going to work and wouldn't find something new. We always learn.
