Regina King

I don't remember a day where I didn't own a pair of Vans or Chucks. I just try to wear what I feel comfortable in.

As an actor, we have to be so vulnerable that it's really hard to involve yourself with the other aspects of filmmaking.

There's a difference between actresses of color and actresses not of color. If you look at how big my movies are.

My mother was a single mom, and most of the women I know are strong.

Athletes are very cool to me.

I know in my own marriage I stayed in it to provide my son with what I thought was a stable background and to give him what I thought was the family life a child should have with two parents. But that isn't always the best way, and it took me taking my son to therapy after the divorce to really see it.

People love to see themselves on screen in a way that makes sense and seems on point.

I make smart food choices. I love food, especially fish, chicken, and beef.

I love my city and I feel like the majority of the people that are in the city are people from other cities. So I think that L.A. sometimes might get a bad rap because it's known to be so Hollywood-oriented and then underneath that you have crime. But that's really the case in pretty much any major city that you go to.

You don't know what unconditional love is. You may say you do, but if you don't have a child, you don't know what that is. But when you experience it, it is the most fulfilling ever.

I want to live a full life - period.

I feel like I was lucky to have a mother that allowed me to dream.
