I don't ever want to get boxed in, playing the same characters, over and over again. That's why I prefer features over television.

I don't ever want to feel complacent.

A lot of times characters are combinations of people I come across in life. I people-watch a lot.

I don't harp on the negative because if you do, then there's no progression. There's no forward movement. You got to always look on the bright side of things, and we are in control. Like, you have control over the choices you make.

When I come home, it's about my kid, who needs to eat, needs to do homework, and needs to get to basketball. I don't have a lot of time to think about me.

I don't think a living being should suffer for the sake of fashion, period. End of story. You don't have to kill an animal just because you want to be hot and fly. And I really stand by that.
