The album 'Kelis Was Here' sucked the life out of me, and so I went off and studied to be a Cordon Bleu chef. What's great about food is that it's less about who you know and what you look like, and more about if you're any good.
There's only one way to break the color line. Be good. I mean, play good. Play so good that they can't remember what color you were before the season started.
I don't believe there is any line bad enough that a good actor can't save.
We used to look at each other and say, 'We play the same game with the same rules, the same bat, the same ball, the same field. What the hell does color have to do with it? You don't play with color. You play with talent.'
Success is based on music, not where you're from.
I think what matters is whatever you do on screen should be good irrespective of the time you have on screen.
I'm not impressed by someone's degree... I'm impressed by them making movies.
I think, at the end of the day, if you're a good actor, then you're a good actor.
I think one third of my work is with first-time directors because I think I should, you know? Really, the difference between a first-time director and a second- or third-time director - I mean there's no director who makes enough movies anyway - but if they're talented, they have it. And there is no movie that is perfect.
Football has never been about young or old players - it is about good or bad players. If you're 13 or 31 and good enough, you're not too young or old.
Sometimes things are nothing on paper, but a genius director turns it into something amazing.
'Ki And Ka' in a very sweet way says that if you have talent, then gender doesn't matter.
