John Shelton Reed Zitate

I can see why many Southerners, black ones in particular, don't like the implication that Southernness and the Confederate heritage are one and the same, because they're not. On the other hand, there are people who want to extirpate that completely and want folks to spit on the graves of their ancestors.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich kann verstehen, dass viele Südländer, insbesondere Schwarze, die Schlussfolgerung nicht mögen, dass Southernness und das Erbe der Konföderierten ein und dasselbe sind, weil sie es nicht sind. Auf der anderen Seite gibt es Leute, die das komplett auslöschen wollen und wollen, dass die Leute auf die Gräber ihrer Vorfahren spucken.

The Lord put me on television to do these things I want to do in the community. And He knew I had a lot to learn. That's why I've been on TV 16 years - not because I'm the greatest actress, but because I need the money.

'Parava,' in my head, was always a film about children. And I was like, 'If I can be part of the film and help promote it in some way or the other, I'd be very happy.' I also did 'Ann Maria' because it was a story about kids.

I want what's mine. I see other actors who are doing very interesting roles, and I just want to continue to do things that are interesting, and things that people will go see in theaters.

So many people have this idea: I want to achieve something great or be somebody great. And they neglect the step that leads to greatness. They don't honor this step at this moment because they have this idea of some future moment where they are going to be great.
