As actors, we have that in common that we go for slightly out-of-the-box or genre stuff. They're great when they work, but they don't always work. Genre stuff is really hard to pull off, as any fans of it know.
You never see girls running after engineers.
I'm not Josh Brolin or Ryan Gosling. They're more noir than I.
I went to school and made good grades and went to college. So I was afforded an opportunity through my parents' hard work that most people don't have.
If the acting don't work out, I'll have a future in construction.
If you look at the true essence of the Black Panthers, they were more of a community protection group.
Instead of becoming an engineer like my brother, I moved to New York to be an actor.
I have been my own disciple and my own master. And I have been a good disciple but a bad master.
I'm much more concerned about America than the Democratic Party.
I'll just be the first to say that Ken [Watanabe] should be a national treasure in Japan, because he is an unbelievably talented actor. You couldn't find more of a gentleman. He's sweet, he's kind and he's extremely thoughtful in the work that he does.
It cuts like a knife, but it feels so right.
