Giving life to music through skating was something I wanted to be known for.

My sport taught me what I could do with my talents, whether in the rink or in the rest of my life.

In 1968, in the midst of the tumultuous 1960s, the Olympics were much more than just another event.

I think that theater is a unique way to communicate with people as they gather together with other people they may not even know. It creates a sense of shared community for the time of the performance that hopefully carries over into other aspects of the audience's life because they have shared this experience together.

Many times, what people call 'writer's block' is the confusion that happens when a writer has a great idea, but their writing skill is not up to the task of putting that idea down on paper. I think that learning the craft of writing is critical.

I think the black community is no different from any other community. We need to take responsibility for how we live together. We need to be personally responsible for keeping our streets clean, our schools safe, and our houses peaceful.

I've never been to Paris. I don't like to fly!

I came to write after several mini careers. I did live theatre, managed a cosmetics store and was a local television personality.

I made straight A's and never got into any trouble, and I still impose those standards on myself. So writing is my chance to escape and become the sleaziest, scummiest role.

I love being the bad guy, simply because I was always so responsible, so predictable growing up.
