You can become famous but you can't become unfamous. You can become infamous but not unfamous.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.
