What I've learned is that the most precious commodity you can have in a relationship is honesty, good or bad.

Hey, I know it's Monday, but it's also a new day, a new week and in that lies a new opportunity for something special to happen.

If you want something to work, if it means that much to you; KEEP IT TO YOURSELF

I wasn't smart enough to read relationship books when I was coming up. I learned everything the hard way.

I feel like I've finally made it as an actor. I've been doing this for years and you don't always make a movie that everybody likes.

You can not be successful without confronting rejection.

You should always challenge yourself, as an actor, to find the connection between you and the character.

You know, a lot of actors I think go into acting for therapy from whatever trauma has affected them as children. But for me, I think I sought out the drama. That's why I like doing what I do.

I love going to see the theatre whether it's a Broadway play or a Russian ballet company.

There's nothing more rewarding than making a difference doing charity work or being able to be there for a friend.

Hope is a delicate thing. A dangerous thing.

We learn to do by doing.

Trust is a good business practice.

White people who are doing this work need to make their stories known to serve as guides for others.

I'm a standup comedian who gets to act. I'm never going to not do standup. I love doing it and when I go through periods where I'm doing a lot of acting work, I still do standup.

I feel like an old warhorse at the sound of a trumpet when I read about the capturing of rare beetles.

Fancy rules over two thirds of the universe, the past, and future, while reality is confined to the present

We are unlimited beings. We have no ceiling. The capabilities and the talents and the gifts and the power that is within every single individual that is on this planet, is unlimited.

Issues are important, yes, but issues come and go. America as an ideal is timeless.

May today be a happy memory, tomorrow a bright new promise. Happy Birthday
