“I never treat it like a job or feel that way. It’s the best thing ever to me, and I feel like a kid in a candy store.”

The day you stop doing the small things is the day you think you’re above everybody else.

I am capable of holding the quote-unquote ‘title’ of leading man. Leading man just means people want to see you and assume that you can hold a film, carry a movie.

Expect me to continue what I’ve been doing, which is trying to take over the world.

People see me on the street, and they point to me, and they’re like, ‘Hey! All right, all right, all right!’

I want to be respected as a guy who knows what he’s talking about. And that, to me, holds more weight than anything else.

I love diversity.

Propaganda works best when those who are being manipulated are confident they are acting on their own free will.
