Zitat des Tages von Lakeith Stanfield:
I'm a little baby in a barrel just taking everything in. I'm just so fortunate to do whatever I'm doing.
I've always been super expressive, and I've always liked to express myself any way I can.
They say every five years the atoms in your body become a new set of atoms.
When you're talking about an authority figure oppressing against people, it's the people that hold that authority figure up. If you want to get free of this bondage, then we need to think about ways to free ourselves rather than looking to the oppressors to free us.
I always knew I'd be an actor. I always knew I'd at least be on a big screen somewhere.
I really like watching myself a lot because it gives me an opportunity to see it from outside the flesh, and when I view it like that, I can be a lot more cynical and see the things that need to be attacked.
We used to do sock puppet shows for my auntie back in the day. Me and my friends would do accents of Englishmen, and we would sip tea and act like we were rich in front of the family, and they thought it was just hilarious, the level of perception that we had about things that we'd never experienced.
It's a hard thing when you've got guns pointed at you, to still stand up for what you believe in. Jimmie Lee and his family did that, and several others.
I'm influenced a lot by my family. I have a big family.
For me, life is like an act within itself. Everything I do is an act. Where I'm going is an act.
I've done music since I would sit and make songs on my computer mic when I was 11.
My two little twin brothers have autism, so I grew up around it and misunderstood it for a long time.
Victorville gave me opportunity to go inside and explore my imagination a bit.
Have you ever heard of 'Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?' I would like to play Sidney Poitier's role - I love that role.
I write poetry, and I put it to a beat - I mean, that's what they call rap.
I was born in San Bernardino in summer of '91 and grew up in Riverside, San Bernardino, and Victorville.
I love 'Watch the Throne,' because Kanye was acting so ratchet.
I think prejudice has gotten to a point where a lot of people hold biases in their mind and don't even realize that they're doing it, because it's deeply ingrained in the fabric of what it means to be an American.
I feel like with every performance that I see, I get better because I've always thought - while I'm watching people perform - of what I would do.
That was like my safe place with great teachers where everyone could let down their guard and not feel judged. As soon as we walk outside, it was like, 'Look at these weird drama club kids.' But we all had our own agreement that we were cool in our own way.
