There's A Place In Me That Can

My Daughter Doesn't Want To Go To School Because She Knows 'the Men' Are Watching For Her. They Jump Out Of The Bushes And From Behind Cars And Who Knows Where Else, Besieging These Children Just To Get A Photo.

Throughout My Career I Have Been Talked Out Of Things I Wanted To Do, And When I Look Back, I Think I Should Have Followed My Instincts.

Just To Be True To Myself, Which Is Why I Did This Movie. I Figured Everyone Was Going To Freak Out And Say, 'why Would You Do That After Dorothy Dandridge?' My Answer Is 'because I Can.' And That Feels Really Good To Be Comfortable Saying That.

People Win 'oscars', And Then It Seems Like They Fall Off The Planet. And That's Partly Because A Huge Expectation Walks In The Room And Sits Right Down On Top Of Your Head.

Any Time You Risk Big You Often Risk Losing Big. You Can Win Big But You Can Also Lose Big, But You Have To Be Willing To Take Those Risks.
