I love the beginning of Magnolia, the thing about the dealer. That scene is genius. Brilliantly acted.
I do not fear failure. I only fear the ''slowing up'' of the engine inside of me which is pounding, saying, ''Keep going, someone must be on top, why not you?''
I do not anticipate, in the foreseeable future, any involvement in the political process including the U.S. Senate race, ... My total focus will be on being the best governor I can be for the next 14 months.
Carved the bottom section out, around, in black ink, took the barrel from the pen, and it appeared like the slide at the weapon. Crude, but likely effective in the dark.
I love doing stand-up, and having a growing core of fans forces me to experiment and push every time. Everyone has fun - me, most importantly.
I try not to have too many opinions; I just marvel at the world we live in.
Making African American films are hard in Hollywood. We need to rely on a support network and bring more cohesion to different filmmakers, actors, producers etc. It's a very difficult business. There aren't a lot of Africans Americans or people of color in high positions in Hollywood that we can green-light films.
A movie is painting, it's photography, it's literature - because you have to have the screenplay - it's music. Put a different soundtrack to a comedy and it's a tragedy. A movie combines all those forms and forces you to pay attention for two hours with a group of people.
The older I get, the more I accept and appreciate myself.
Sometimes I do yoga, sometimes it's kickboxing, sometimes it's weight training, sometimes it's Pilates.
If you're an actress and even one person knows your name, you're lucky.
I'm black because that's the way the world sees me.
I think the age we're living in is starting to get scary.
Becoming a mother is the best thing that's happened to me.
