In the harshest place on Earth, ... love finds a way.

I'm not sure that my upbringing has in itself informed my acting choices.

I try to keep my mind active. I'm a solitaire and puzzle addict. I exercise religiously. I don't do many things religiously and I've taken up golf to have something to do when I have nothing to do.

It's what I learn from the great actors that I work with. Stillness. That's all and that's the hardest thing.

I would never complain that Hollywood is racist when I'm one of the people touted as a welcome entity there.

Dr. Martin Luther King is not a black hero. He is an American hero.

I don't know what my favorite film of mine is... But I think the most important film I was in was Glory.
