Im really bad at tests of any kind, so Im bad at auditions. I consider myself educated most of the time, but when Im under the gun, I just fail.

It's so enjoyable to play a bad guy, you know.

I was often getting hired to play sociopaths and psychopaths and stuff, which is really funny.

I was watching Orson Welles and Jean Vigo films at a ridiculously young age.

Since the world began, God has raised up prophets who speak the will of heaven to the people of their times. It is our responsibility to listen and then apply the messages the Lord provides for us.

I had an unbelievable opportunity here to try and follow in similar footsteps [of Michael Jordan], but in a different capacity hopefully. I took that opportunity and I'm excited about it.

A good rapper is a good rapper, a good album is a good album. I don't think anyone is inherently good.

Many enlightened persons are never very well known. Many are reclusive. They live in little villages in India or up in the high Himalayas in Tibet. Some have no students at all. Some have a few.

Jesus wants to give you five things: extravagant compassion, moral clarity, sacrificial courage, persevering hope, and refreshing joy.

If you're going to make sense of politics you have to have a historical perspective and also recognise that you have to work with people you don't agree with.
