So we must love, while these moments are still called today, take part in the pain of this passion play, stretching our youth as we must, until we are ashes to dust, until time makes history of us.

I'm a little bit antisocial and I recently discovered that I'm introverted. But the love between people makes me alive.

Artists and celebrities are citizens, and as such you have a responsibility to keep fighting for justice because there are monolithic power structures and systemic oppression out there.

I see people whose spirits are not broken, who continue to work for justice. That makes me feel alive, when I witness their work, and then I witness some of their dreams come to fruition.

Falling, falling, falling, falling down. Look yourself in the eye before you drown.

Love is selflessness and self-fullness; it can only be known deeply with an open, vulnerable heart.

I don't think any human being is truly free. We're so tethered to our own insecurities and hampered by our fears and our prejudices. I think it's human nature that we're never going to be free.

The prize is always worth the rocky ride.

Begin my studies with the paper and this pencil and i'm working through the grammar of my fears.

It's in our blind trust that love will find us, just like it has before.

You set up your place in my thoughts, moved in and made my thinking crowded.

I've been 40 years discovering that the queen of all colors was black.

I feel like casting is the most important aspect of making movies.

You make 'em, I amuse 'em. [children]

Feares are divided in the midst.

I've been doing African dance all my life.

Life's errors cry for the merciful beauty that can modulate their isolation into a harmony with the whole.

Be still: There is no longer any need of comment. It was a lucky wind That blew away his halo with his cares, A lucky sea that drowned his reputation.

Some people made me out like the villain. I'm supposed to be the Bond villain, but actually I'm James Bond.

In the old covenants the people were sprinkled with blood of calves without, in their bodies, to bind them to keep the law; else we were bound to just damnation, for the breaking of it.

You may think I'm brave. But in the eyes of many people back in my country I am a coward. They think, this man gave so much freedom to his daughter, he broke all the traditions of our society.
