real opposites age
Michelle Pfeiffer hasn't been finding a lot of work recently because she doesn't like what a woman her age is offered. That's a real double standard. You get Sean Connery, who gets older and older, still playing opposite young ladies, but it doesn't work the other way around.
want can-do
We do what we have to so we can do what we want to.
life success faith
Black or white good parts are hard to come by. A good actor with a good opportunity has a shot; without the opportunity it doesn't matter how good you are.
acting weird-things knows
You don't know when you're being watched. That's one of the weird things about celebrity. It's my least favorite part of acting, celebrity.
dream vision important
It is very important to transcend the places that hold us.

I think the bottom of the totem pole is African-American women, or women of colour. I think they get the least opportunities in Hollywood.

I still have my unemployment books and I remember when I worked for the sanitation department and the post office.

Growing up I didn't watch movies.

Every punch that's thrown is mine. Every punch that's caught, I catch....

Dakota Fanning is a child, but she is a wonderful actor. I don't know what a child actor is. She's an actor who's a child.
desire want proof
So the desire you have, that itch that you have to be whatever it is you want to be … that itch, that desire for good is God's proof to you sent already to indicate that it's yours. You already have it. Claim it.

success mistake boys
When my oldest boy was about 14, I started to talk to him about some of the mistakes I made in life, just to put a few dents in that shiny armor.
