Even though I am extremely blessed to have accomplished many of my goals at such a young age, I am still reaching, still striving.
I am for the art of underwear and the art of taxicabs. I am for the art of ice cream cones dropped on concrete.
But don't call me an actor. I'm just a worker. I am an entertainer. Don't say that what I am doing is art.
I am not a food critic. Or a chef. Or even a professional writer. What I am schooled in the art of, however, is enjoying myself.
I am not obsessing. I am just sitting here perforating this post-it with a push-pin.
I am not scared of you, I am scare of these feelings.
I am who I am; no more, no less.
I am not a fancy cook or an ambitious cook. I am a plain old cook.
I am naturally a thin person and I am 5'1" and putting on five or 10 pounds, that looks like a lot on me.
I am sure I am one of 2,000 film directors in the world that Tarantino admires.
I am love, I am music, she thinks. Let’s dance.
Mind is everything. Muscle - pieces of rubber. All that I am, I am because of my mind.
I am a religious person, although I am not a believer.
The line between what I really am, and what I am on reel, is slowly diminishing.
I am very aware of being black and female because that's what I am.
While I am busy with little things, I am not required to do greater things.
I am actually very in touch with all of my emotions, from joy to pain, and I am free with them.
I am six feet tall. I am not supposed to be afraid.
I am who I am, in terms of shooting from the hip occasionally.
I've realised that I am who I am and that is it. Like it or lump it. I'm not around to please anyone any more, and it's a huge relief.
No, I am a crier and if people ever saw me privately they would be shocked at what a bowl of mush I am underneath it all.
