I'm one of those people for whom success is one thing, but significance is another. If I can have both, I'm living the dream.

For me, comedy and drama are all the same thing.

I've lived in Paris. I've lived in the Slovak Republic. I've spent extensive time in England, and I've traveled all over Europe.

It will be difficult if people can't get past their prejudices; I don't mean Black and White; I mean people automatically assume because a film has a predominantly Black cast, that it is a particular quality of film.

Stillness empowers. Being able to detach from all external stimulants - social media, social engagements, TV, alcohol, food, etc. - and face our own silence is an enormous luxury that should not be taken for granted. The most rewarding moments in my life have stemmed from such stillness.

I haven't really been auditioning. For me is about finding quality work versus finding work. I get a considerable amount of offers everyday.

If you are courageous enough to be still, you are a step closer to becoming empowered.
