I'm not intimidated by lead roles. I'm better in them. I don't feel pressure. I feel released at times like that. That's what I'm born to do.

Hey, if I don't have a job, I don't know why I bother to get up. Any time the phone rings, I'm ready to go. What else am I going to do? See, I've never retired. I don't even know what it means.

And that if you become a star, people are going to go to see you. If you remain an actor, they're going to go and see the story you're in.

I seldom get into the mood of the story. It's acting. I go in, I act, I quit. I don't take anything away from it.

How are we going to get rid of racism? Stop talking about it!
