"I always make sure that whoever I work with, they’re aware of me as a person and not just a token for the brand. If I’m on set and the set is not accessible, I make sure to say something. If you’re hiring someone who uses crutches, yet there are no elevators on set, or they have to climb a bunch of stairs just to get to hair and makeup—that’s a problem. I feel like people recognize that I’m a black woman, but oftentimes they forget the disability part. On one hand, that’s a good thing because sometimes that’s the only thing people focus on. But we have a multitude of identities—there’s pride in being a woman, there’s pride in being black, and there’s pride in being disabled."

"Some people approach acting with all these things in their head, making it more complicated than it needs to be, way too cerebral. I don't want to know that an actor lived in a cave for 12 days so that he could prepare for a part."

 (Dennis Farina, attore; Chicago, 29 febbraio 1944 – Scottsdale, 22 luglio 2013)

"L'illusione dell' arte è far credere che la letteratura sia rappresentazione della vita ma in realtà accade l'opposto."

(Françoise Sagan, pseudonimo di Françoise Quoirez, scrittrice e sceneggiatrice; Cajarc, 21 giugno 1935 – Honfleur, 24 settembre 2004)

"I don't act. I react."

(James Maitland Stewart, attore e militare; Indiana, 20 maggio 1908 – Beverly Hills, 2 luglio 1997)
