The older we get the less afraid we are.

So I had to be careful. I recognized the responsibility that, whether I liked it or not, I had to accept whatever the obligation was. That was to behave in a manner, to carry myself in such a professional way, as if there ever is a reflection, it's a positive one.

I wanted to explore the values that are at work, underpinning my life.

I never had an occasion to question color, therefore, I only saw myself as what I was... a human being.

I did not go into the film business to be symbolized as someone else's vision of me.

I lived in a country where I couldn't live where I wanted to live. I lived in a country where I couldn't go where I wanted to eat. I lived in a country where I couldn't get a job, except for those put aside for people of my colour or caste.

A person doesn't have to change who he is to become better.
