A woman has to be intelligent, have charm, a sense of humor, and be kind. It's the same qualities I require from a man.

Opportunities are often things you haven't noticed the first time around.

I get irritated, nervous, very tense or stressed, but never bored.

I think the clothes in Belle de Jour are very important to the style of the film. Even today, it is still timeless.

It's always difficult to play a scene of physical violence because you're always afraid that you don't know your own strength and might hurt someone.

Love is suffering. One side always loves more.

You can express a lot of things, a lot of action without speaking.

Cinema is still a very young art form with extraordinary techniques and very impressive special effects. But sometimes it seems the soul has been taken out of things.

I like all these little animals that run and eat and hide all the time. I like their faces, They seem to be scared and curious at the same time.

That's what I like about film-it can be bizarre, classic, normal, romantic. Cinema is to me the most versatile thing.

People have always thought of me as someone who's very classical,when in fact I've led a rather unconventional life.

With life, everything that’s needed to be known can be known by human. No mystery can be hidden from you if you really try to look into it.

I'm against solutions that are worse than the problem. Like old women who want their hair dyed the color of shoe polish to hide the gray.

When life is tough or even unbearable and we want to give up, God will send us a partner to help us make the journey - 1 Kings 19 & Luke 1:39 - 56

Respect the masterpiece. It is true reverence to man. There is no quality so great, none so much needed now.

I thank God for Hip Hop because Marvin Gaye didn't have that and he was able to be that dope. For us to have that and more, I feel like it is up to us to be as dope as we can possibly be.

I really enjoy doing things that are more subtle and close to home - and literally close to home.

Matter is spirit at its lowest level. Spirit is matter at its highest level.

I'm like Will Rogers, I never met a man I didn't like... well, Eichmann maybe.

The world today is made, it is powered by science; and for any man to abdicate an interest in science is to walk with open eyes towards slavery.

If skills sold truth be told I'd probably be lyrically Talib Kweli Truthfully I want to rhyme like Common Sense (But I did five Mil) I ain't been rhyming like Common since.
