I really appreciate an actor who has paid their dues and who has learned hard knocks and has been rewarded in the end.

I believe that no one can teach you how to act, but schools do give you an environment to make mistakes, to learn techniques and to learn professionalism.

My whole experience into the sitcom world, it was, like, "This is like theater, this is like film... This is a hybrid of everything I love to do. A live audience and rehearsals and... more food!"

If actors could actually make a living doing theater, that would be my first choice. Sitcoms are the closest thing to being onstage in front of an audience.

We watch so many TV shows and movies about jaded or corrupt policemen, we forget people join the police force to do good, and they really care about that.

I'd love to teach theatre arts.

It's like watching a car accident, that reality TV.

Have the courage to take off your mask and be humbled.

If you sing a song, you never be sad.

I've modeled my game after Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan.

I'm glad I was never in a band.

We have too many preacherettes preaching too many sermonettes to too many Christianettes smoking cigarettes.

I have continued to work at different things, and rebuilt my home all by myself. I did it for the sake of satisfaction at doing something. I did it because I happened to be where I was.

A mother defends herself with a heart filled with love before doing so with words. I wonder whether there is any love for the church in the hearts of those who pay so much attention to the scandals.

An empire is an immense egotism.

To be idle and to be poor have always been reproaches, and therefore every man endeavors with his utmost care to hide his poverty from others, and his idleness from himself.

And he goes through life, his mouth open, and his mind closed.
