Being realistic is the most commonly travelled road to mediocracy

I know how to learn anything I want to learn. I absolutely know that I could learn how to fly the space shuttle because someone else knows how to fly it, and they put it in a book. Give me the book, and I do not need somebody to stand up in front of the class.

The first time that I performed as an actor was the first day on the set of 'The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.'

I consider myself an alchemist. An alchemist is basically a mystical chemist, right? And one of the great feats that alchemists used to do is they would take lead - just take a chunk of lead - and they could turn lead into gold.

I so connected to symbolically being able to turn lead into gold. My grandmother used to say, "Life give you a lemon, you go ahead and make lemonade." To me, that's alchemy.

Be magic choose and believe that you can do anything you set your mind to believe. We are who we choose to be.

Give me about 10 years, I'm going to run for President. If I can squeeze in an NBA championship before that, I'll do it.
