If I wasn't acting, I have no clue what I'd be doing 'cause I have no other talent.

There's no mystery to it. Nothing more complicated than learning lines and putting on a costume.

I want to be up there, being lauded and applauded and given all these and on the red carpet, waving at the hordes of people.

I'm making a great effort because sometimes life is not enjoyable. Sometimes it's painful and sometimes it's stressful, sometimes it's agonizing even, so I think once you get around those humps: strive for pleasure and peace.

Race seems to me to be less and less a subject worth discussing.

I've travelled a lot, but I am essentially American. All my input has been American.

Every job's a challenge. The challenge is to do it and make it look right, like you belong there - wherever that is.
