Well, I had a wonderful career.

A young actor once asked me, What do you do between jobs? I said, Hobbies, hobbies, and more hobbies.

Sometimes you don't prepare much. I mean, when I did 'Lonesome Dove' way back I rode horses day and night for like three or four months, and that got me ready for that.

I don't have many people showing up at my door. Very few people come out. When they do, I get a little suspicious. I live way up on a hill, way, way back in the country.

I always found new challenges in my career.

Being labeled as someone who would cheat hurts more than anything else I've ever been through in my career.

I hope to have a career like Jodie Foster, going from child to adult actress.

The paradox of being in an industry where other people are usually the gatekeepers: publishers, editors - there are a lot of barriers to having control over your career. But coming out of hip-hop, the mindset was always to create your own.
