I believe the Negro blood counts, and counts to my advantage – though it has caused me at times a life of great humiliation and sorrow.

I have a theory that women are generally given space and appointed to jobs when the situation is tough. I’ve observed that in many instances. In times of crisis, women eventually are called upon to...

L.A., it’s nice, but I think of sunshine and people on rollerblades eating sushi. New York, I think of nighttime, I think of Times Square and Broadway and nightlife and the city that never sleeps.

The present is a great treasure, live in the present.

Sometimes in football you deserve to win but lose. Other times you deserve to lose or draw but you win. That is the game, and it’s why I’ve always said you should never try to...

I’ve twice accidentally stolen something, and both times I went back and paid for them when I realized I had done it.

I’ve never had Internet access. Actually, I have looked at things on other people’s computers as a bystander. A few times in my life I’ve opened email accounts, twice actually, but it’s something I don’t...

Often times, music is used to evoke an emotion and it’s become a cliche, so I don’t want to do that, and actually what I do, is that emotional intensity that has developed throughout the...

Education is the key to the future: You’ve heard it a million times, and it’s not wrong. Educated people have higher wages and lower unemployment rates, and better-educated countries grow faster and innovate more than...

I’ve never really gotten into the whole labels thing. There were times I would cover a pop song, and people would say ‘You sound really country.’ I gave up on that whole thing a long...

If I would characterize my life, I would say that I was a very lucky actor who came into very lucky times, and got to Hollywood, and was put under contract by Warners in the...

I really told my story as I saw it in ‘Cross to Bear,’ and I was pleased – and a bit surprised – by how well it was received and how it sold. No. 2...

I’ve been irresponsible many, many, many times and that has resulted in my being fat.

When I interview somebody, I look at their resume to see what they’ve done, who they’ve worked with, and how many times. If they’ve gotten repeat work. Those are the kinds of actors I want...

We’ve already been reincarnated about a million times, maybe. It doesn’t make sense any other way.

I run a lot. I have this five-mile run that I try and do a few times a week. If I do more, I get shin splints and it drives me mad, so I have...

It’s kind of true that they just start making the same movie over and over again. It’s also true that the times dictate what kind of movies get made and what kind are not. So...

Yes well I’ve done three movies with Samuel L. Jackson, so I’ve met him a couple of times already. Well, I see him everyday, but its only on the screen.
