No matter what your native tongue is, no matter what part of the world you're from, if your native tongue is distorted with an accent, somehow that's always funny.

As a person of color, there's no getting around the reality of its responsibility.

Building a little bonfire at night on the beach and lying on a blanket with my wife under the stars is not only sexy, it's romantic.

As far as I know, you only get one shot at this life. It only goes round once and time is precious. When I'm not working, you'd better spend that time with someone important.

My sense of personal strength has always come from my family.

My family is like a sanctuary to me. I always turn to them for support and strength. I take comfort in knowing no matter which path I choose, my family stands behind me.

The whole thing about acting, the draw for me, is the opportunity to do things you don't get to do in real life.

I've made a career over the last seventeen years of mostly playing men in uniform, especially cops. The one thing for an actor that is death, is if you're bored. The boredom will show in your work.

There is no length that is too great to go to in order to protect your child.

Your job as an actor is to stay employed.

Writing isn't only about a completed piece of work.It’s about the writer you’re becoming while creating.

I am the happiest soul.

Never trust money more than gold.

I think this whole celebrity world is weird anyway. Weird and funny and kind of pathetic and yet so right for parody.

If you sit quiet long enough, you find out what people really think.

I never saw any good that came of telling truth.

If the way they make the show makes it fresh, then it's worthwhile. I think all of these forms have to be blown up every now and then and start again.

All feelings are acceptable, but all behavior isn't.

I had always been kind of obsessed with making a home of my own and was always drawing rooms that I wanted to live in, down to pictures on the wall and the faces that would be in the photographs.

If it is too good to be true....it is probably a fraud.
