God is the partner of your most intimate soliloquies

I am an actor. I am an artist. I am a daughter. I am a sister. I am a partner. I have a past that some people may not agree with, but it does not define who I am.

Before I got into stand-up, I used to be a hip-hop dancer in a crew, and my name was J. Smoove, and my partner was J. Groove.

I’ve been active all my life. In 1990 I retired from my firm, I.M. Pei & Partners, and for two years I didn’t do much. Then I started to get kind of antsy, so I decided, I’m going to do some more work. And I chose to do work outside the U.S. because I’ve spent 45 years here and I wanted to learn more about what’s happening in the rest of the world.

Right before Pamela Anderson met Tommy Lee I got this crazy script to do this incredible movie with her where I play this cop with a young partner like Brad Pitt who is in love with Pamela Anderson and he gets killed in the line of duty and she falls in love with me and it gets really crazy. I turned that down.

You’ll never find a better sparring partner than adversity.

Good sex is like good bridge. If you don’t have a good partner, you’d better have a good hand.

If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.

Anyone I’m with has to give me freedom. I like to be with someone who has character and style and someone who is very understanding.

Our success has really been based on partnerships from the very beginning.

When a match has equal partners, then I fear not

I can’t do what she want me to do, she tryna take my child away. I think my past tryna haunt me.
