The Central Idea Of Love Is Not Even A Relationship Commitment, The First Thing Is A Personal Commitment To Be The Best Version Of Yourself With Or Without That Person That You're With. You Have To Every Single Day-mind, Body, And Spirit-wake Up With A Commitment To Be Better.

Fear Is Not Real. The Only Place That Fear Can Exist Is In Our Thoughts Of The Future. It Is A Product Of Our Imagination, Causing Us To Fear Things That Do Not At Present And May Not Ever Exist. That Is Near Insanity Kitai. Do Not Misunderstand Me, Danger Is Very Real, But Fear Is A Choice.

My Skin Is Hard When It Comes To My Music. But With My Movies, I'm Still A Virgin In A Lot Of Ways. I'm Not Used To Being Shot Down For No Reason.

Wasting Your Time

I Just Feel Like There's So Much More That I Could Do...and, You Know, Every Day I Wake Up And I Try To Do A Little More And I Just Want The World To Be Different And Better Because I Was Here.

Before 2010, I Had A Vision. I Saw A Family In My Mind That I Wanted To Have. And I Was Pushing And Driving Hard For My Picture, And Then I Realized Everyone Has Their Own Journey.

You Be As Truthful As You Can To A Specific Situation, And It Will Become Universal.

I Like To Look Good, But I Like My Body To Function Well More Than Anything. For Me, It's As Spiritual And Intellectual As It Is Physical. And Emotional. I Enjoy Pushing Myself.

Greatness Lives On The Edge Of Destruction

The Separation Of Talent And Skill Is One Of The Largest Misconceptions In Modern Society. Talent Is Something You Born With, But Skill Can Only Be Attained Through Hours And Hours Of Hard Work Perfecting Your Talent As A Craft. Which Is Why Talent Will Fail You Without Skill.

I So Connected To Symbolically Being Able To Turn Lead Into Gold. My Grandmother Used To Say, "life Give You A Lemon, You Go Ahead And Make Lemonade." To Me, That's Alchemy.

If You Stay Ready, You Don't Have To Get Ready.

Gettin' Jiggy Wit It Is, Like, The Next Level Of Cool. It's Cool To The Eighth Power. Some People Are Fly, Some People Are Kind Of Hot. But When You Are The Jiggiest, When You Exude Jiggy-essence, It's The Acme Of Cool.

Part Of Being An Actor Is Almost Self-hypnosis During Those Brief Moments When The Cameras Are Rolling. You Want To Actually Believe You're Chris Gardner Or Muhammad Ali.

There Is Nothing Like Having To Change Your Physical Form To Put You In Contact With Every Weak Part Of Yourself, To Train Yourself In Discipline. Put Somebody On A Treadmill And I'll Tell You How Good They Are At Any Other Thing They Do In Life.

We Spend Money That We Do Not Have, On Things We Do Not Need, To Impress People Who Do Not Care.

I Think For Me, As A Parent, Once My Children Are Thoroughly Informed, They Can Make The Decisions That They Want To Make. The Only Thing That I Demand Is A Complete Comprehension [of The Information].

The First Time That I Performed As An Actor Was The First Day On The Set Of 'the Fresh Prince Of Bel-air.'

When You Look Around At The Six People That You Spend The Most Time With, That's Who You Are. I Think That In Making Those Decisions In Who You Are Going To Be Married To, Who Your Friends Are Going To Be, Those Are Really Huge, Critical, Life Decisions. Who Gets To Talk To You Everyday, Is Almost Like The Food That You Eat. It Is A Very Huge Critical Situation To Choose Who The People Are That You Are Spending Your Life With, Spending Your Time With And Who You Are Choosing To Give Your Love And Everything To.

I Control Every Interaction With Every Human Being I'm With. I Can Actually Manage Any Situation With 98 Percent Of The People On Earth.

Well, All I Know Is What I Read In The Papers.

Begin Each Day As If It Were On Purpose.

Anything Can Go Away. There's No Such Thing As Safety And Security. You Can Do Things That Give You The Illusion Of Safety And Security, But There's Really No Such Thing.

Things Work In Spite Of Me Sometimes.

The First Step Is You Have To Say That You Can.

If You Look At Somebody Like 50 Cent, Ain't Nobody Telling 50 What To Do And How To Do What He Does. He Has A Vision Of Who He Wants To Be, And He Instructs Everybody Along Those Lines.

Give Me A Problem, I'll Give You A Solution. I Just Love Living. That's A Feeling You Can't Fake. I'm Glad Every Single Day. I Think That Even The Camera Can Feel That I'm A Happy Man.

On Learning To Swim: I'm Too Big To Have Some Woman Hold My Stomach And Say 'now Kick Your Feet.'

Reading... There Have Been Millions And Billions And Billions And Gazillions Of People That Have Lived Before All Of Us. There's No New Problem You Could Have - With Your Parents, With School, With A Bully, With Anything. There's No Problem You Can Have That Someone Hasn't Already Solved And Wrote About It In A Book.

You Don’t Try To Build A Wall, You Don’t Set Out To Build A Wall. You Don’t Say ‘i’m Going To Build The Biggest, Baddest, Greatest Wall That’s Ever Been Built.’ You Don’t Start There… You Say ‘i’m Going To Lay This Brick As Perfectly As A Brick Can Be Laid.’ And You Do That Every Single Day And Soon You Have A Wall.

I've Always Been Attracted To Characters With Insurmountable Odds And Obstacles, Because Innately, However Inarticulately I've Always Believed That My Dreams And My Desires Can Command And Bend Time And Space To Be The Things That I Want Them To Be.

The Quality Of Your Life Was Determined By The Quality Of Your Service. I'm Attracted To Characters Who Have A Higher Calling, Who Want To Serve In Ways Where You Get Beyond The Comfortable Service And You Get Into The Space Of The Sacrificial. And I Really Am Attracted To Characters Who Just Want To Do Things That Brighten The World. That Probably Is The Central Aspect Of My Personality.

When You Connect To A Primal Idea - Life, Death, Hunger, Hope, Fear - Any Of Those Primal Ideas Are Going To Translate, And I Think That's The Thing That I've Always Been Attracted To In My Work.

Those Who Say I Can, And Those Who Say I Can't - Are Both Usually Right

We Didn't Grow Up With The Sense That Where We Were Was Where We Were Gonna Be. We Grew Up With The Sense That Where We Were Almost Didn't Matter, Because We Will Be Becoming Something Greater.

When You're Talking To A Person, It Only Matters What They Are Perceiving. You Only Need Them To Perceive You As A Loving Husband. You Don't Necessarily Need To Be One. That's Always A Good Road, If You Actually Are One. But What People Are Perceiving Will Dictate What Their Life Is, And Ultimately What Your Interaction Is.

You'd Be Surprised How Much You Don't Understand What Other People See Your Actions As; How Other People View The Things You Say And The Things That You Do. And A Lot Of Times Just Clarifying What Your Intentions Are With People Makes A Huge Difference.

I'm Not Afraid To Die On A Treadmill.

Just Stay Ready. Stay In Shape And Then You Don't Have To Rush To Train Before The Movie Starts. I'll Show You My Abs Later Because I’m In Shape. But That Idea, If You Stay Ready, You Don’t Have To Get Ready.

It's Been Rough For Me Trying To Find My Position In The Struggle And Where My Voice Is Needed And Helpful.

We All Want To Be In Love And Find That Person Who Is Going To Love Us No Matter How Our Feet Smell, No Matter How Angry We Get One Day, No Matter The Things We Say That We Don't Mean.

The First Step Before Anybody Else In The World Believes It, Is That You Believe It.

Sitting In The Movie Theater Watching "star Wars," I've Never Had An Experience With Any Form Of Entertainment That Was Like That. It Was Almost Spiritual. I Couldn't Believe That Someone's Mind Created That.

The Thing I Wanted To Focus On First Was That I Wanted To Graduate, And (with Me) Coming Back, I Knew That I Wanted Another National Championship.

I Grew Up In The Church, Resurrection Baptist Church In Philadelphia, And My Grandmother Was That Grandmother At The Church, The One Always At The Church, Always Putting On The Events.

I Want To Be The Person That Is The First Person There And The Last Person To Leave.
