I feel like we need to make new superheroes, African-American superheroes, that people would accept.

School is cool. Thats why it rhymes

I want to be a man who mixes strengths and compassion. That's my magic elixir, so to speak.

You can't be perfect, so enjoy your imperfections.

My mantra is "I don't want to let anybody down." Maybe that's not the right attitude, because you can't please everybody. But I'm giving it everything I've got.

I was a sports nut. I stayed after school probably three hours every day - from fall, to winter, to spring. I went from football to basketball to track and it started all over again. I loved all of it. I just loved being an athlete and all that it entailed. It really accounts for who I am.

I just see the opportunities and I go for them. I don't want to play my career safe. I've had my successes and I've had a few failures, too. But you just keep going and do the best that you can. That's what I've learned.
