I started in this industry [television] as a kid doing commercials. Ever since I was introduced to it, I loved it.

I've worked so hard to just be my full self and God has just validated me in so many ways.

I feel responsible to know what I'm talking about and to actually express myself the way I choose. We have to put those messages on a global platform period. That, to me, is inspiring.

I really got attracted to the idea of touching so many people and that idea of art transcending entertainment and art and activism being synonymous.

I just owe it to myself, to God and to everybody who supports me and people who don't even know me yet, to just be fully intentional and authentically real with everything I do, say and create.

I try to be as intentional as possible.

People respect us, they love us and they're entertained by us, so it's like when you trust somebody on that level, it's a lot easier to speak some real knowledge into their minds.

As a young, Black man, I absolutely feel responsible.

Everyone has a platform, so if we could just use that and combine what we have and know -we talk about it in private - we might as well talk about it [publicly] together.

I think that's really the allure of acting for me. I really want to connect with people.

I really wanted to be a part of that movement or better yet create that movement.

If there is a magic in story writing, and I am convinced there is, no one has ever been able to reduce it to a recipe that can be passed from one person to another.

Marketing used to be about advertising, and advertising is expensive. Today, marketing is about engaging with the tribe and delivering products and services with stories that spread.

I'm just being the artist that I would have loved if I was a child.

A holy habit clenseth not a foule soule.

To be a true fashionista, you have to be on the best-dressed list and worst-dressed list.

I like the George Romero films, which were really great, social satire movies; really twisted.

I encourage you to deliberately look for something to smile or laugh about every day, and be sure to share a smile or a laugh with someone else and brighten their day too!

Well, no doubt it's a blessed thing to have an imagination that can always make you satisfied, no matter how you are fixed.

Hillary Clinton is going to find common ground with the Republicans on foreign and military affairs. They both want to enhance the military budget.

People recognize me, call me Ron, and ask me questions. It's really cool and weird as well.
