‘The Help’ sheds light on a certain truth in America, but the tragedy is if we don’t get a chance to contrast it with other points of views. ‘The Butler’ does that, ‘Red Tails’ does that and that’s what ’96 Minutes’ does.

Boredom is a very self-conscious emotion by definition. Interest is not. So you can actually be completely absorbed in something and, at certain points in your development, not even realize that you’re into it.

I think there’s so many points of view that you want to make sure your stories are being told from men and women… you get all of the different backgrounds.

At different points in my life, I had grappled with the idea of going into the priesthood – in high school or law school. Where it ends, I’m not quite sure. Perhaps it ends with death, grappling with one’s spirituality.
It’s too bad prayer comes bundled in a package of ‘spiritual disciplines.’ Really, we should see prayer as a spiritual privilege. We don’t do it as a callisthenic exercise to gain points with God; we do it, because it is good for us in every way.
There’s been a lot of talk of me being a one-man show but that’s simply not the case. We win games when I score 40 points and we’ve won when I score 10.
