I don't do anything on stage that allows me to become a trained seal, where you're just doing the same thing over and over.
Go find something that you haven't done before. Don't do the same thing over and over again.
There's a feeling sometimes in motherhood that you're alone in what you're going through, and none of us are alone. We're all going through the same thing.
And I think for me there's a lot of neurosis involved with where you should be or thinking about where you are all the time instead of being where you are.
Sometimes you have to change the mold. If people keep following the same Hollywood mold, you're going to get the same thing. And as a Black actress, there's not a whole lot out there for us, unless we're creating it.
You set up a story and it turns inside out and that is, for me, the most exciting sort of story to write. The viewer thinks it's going to be about something and it does the opposite.
I think everything that happens to you becomes a part of what you end up doing and being and standing for.
If people have split views about your work, I think it's flattering. I'd rather have them feel something about it than dismiss it.
This country is about, in my judgment, aggressive, open debate. There is an old saying: When everyone is thinking the same thing, no one is thinking very much.
