I didn't defraud the government by taking money that was not mine.

Lot of the scripts I've been in with other non-white actors haven't been great. Lot of non-white actors ain't all that great.

In the beginning, all I wanted to do was to be a singer and a dancer. That was my real groove, my real interest. When it came to doing films, my biggest goal was to do a commercial.

If a woman decides she likes me, it would behoove her to take into consideration that my art has had a strong influence on the type of person I am.

I mainly buy books in my free time.

I've always been paying my taxes and I've always been trying to comply.

I think the key that differentiates the good actors from the mediocre ones that are still trying to come up, is that the good ones know how to listen. It's like being in a jazz band. They know how to listen to what the other musicians are playing. And where to come in and where to sit out. That's my approach to being in an ensemble cast and working with any kind of actors in a scene.
