The greatest country in the history of the world being attacked. So all of this doesn't mean very much today.

Money has to be put in the way a club feels it should. If you put money in a new ballpark, that helps to generate revenue so you can spend more money. It should be spent to make the club's operations the best. That will help in the end, and it will mean enhanced payroll.

The most beautiful thing about Brazil that I always find that is so unlike any other place I've been in the world is the diversity of its people.

The one thing I have wanted to stay away from is the steroids. When I had an attack two years ago in my home state of Mississippi, they put me on steroids, thinking they were doing the right thing, and I had a violent reaction.

The big budget films have money to do things that are not necessarily essential but sure are comforting. The catering is usually much better. And you have way more of anything you could possibly need. You definitely get a trailer. My shirt and suit for 'Million Dollar Baby' were tailor made.

There are a lot of times that we feel like our hands are tied - 'I have no control over if I'm going to lose my job.' 'I have no control over if I'm going to be able to pay my bills.'

There are so many things to talk about between black people, Hispanic people, white people, gay people, men, women, it's all based on fear.

'Baltimore' the series is inspired by all kinds of things, from 'Moby Dick' to 'Dracula.'

I don't think of myself as a romantic person; I'm kind of more rough and tumble, I think. The things I'm drawn to are outdoorsy, I only get dressed up when I have to.

When a movie opened - if you lived in New York, you would see it at Radio City Music Hall where it would play a couple of weeks, and then you moved on to the next movie. Now you can see it the rest of your life - it's going to be on Netflix and DVD.

I tell my students to try early in life to find an unattainable objective.

My experience with casting children is that... the whole movie is going to rest on their shoulders, so you have to set aside time and wait for the perfect people to appear.

Black men struggle with masculinity so much. The idea that we must always be strong really presses us all down - it keeps us from growing.

Life is like a sewer: what you get out of it depends on what you put into it.
