My rule is simply "love what you do". That certainly has brought me to the place I where am at right now. It really has been with the work.

I came from a divorced mother and father, obviously mixed race.

To be a character actor is to be open, to be a chameleon.

I have from time to time been a double A or triple A personality. I'm not anymore. I'm more lenient on myself.

I love the smell of fried chicken.

I try to be careful with my persuasiveness. When my heart is really behind it, and when I have no ulterior motive, then I know I’m truly persuasive.

I have this vision that I'm really watching each one of my daughters start to become women, and mothers. And this is what's gonna save our planet.

Middle-class people are becoming desperate. It can cause a moral man to break bad.

You can never lead unless you follow.

There is a price to pay for most of our actions. For every action, there is a reaction.

I always wanted to be a boy scout but was too poor. Couldn't do it.

Deep down in my heart, I know that I know nothing.

Every year you work in Hollywood takes a year off your soul.

In Colombia today we have 16% of the population, which is a very small amount of the population owning 90% of the land and 20 years ago it wasn't like that.

What we need to do is raise the minimum wage. We also need to hold onto equal pay. Women work for 76 cents on the dollar for the same work that men do. That's not right in America.

I always feel like there is some dude out there with money that I could fall back on if I needed to.

In a way, the most morally troubling thing about killing chickens is that after a while it is no longer morally troubling.

Devotion does not mean only Chanting praise and singing glory of God, nor fasting and offerings made to God. Devotion is a specific attitude towards life and existence.

I'm full of curiosity.

The objects of this primary education . . . would be . . . to form the statesmen, legislators and judges, on whom public prosperity and individual happiness are so much to depend.

Unfortunately they're practically all dead. And many were my closest associates: friends, co-directors, whatever you want to say - my partners in crime.
