“Tutto questo” pensava “non dovrebbe poter durare; però durerà, sempre; il sempre umano, beninteso, un secolo, due secoli...; e dopo sarà diverso, ma peggiore.

“Tuve ocasión de aprender que el valor no consiste en no tener miedo, sino en ser capaz de vencerlo. He sentido miedo más veces de las que puedo recordar, pero siempre lo he ocultado tras una máscara de audacia. El hombre valiente no es el que no siente miedo, sino el que es capaz de conquistarlo.”
“Tuve que ahorrar un poco para mi siguiente obsesión. Los discos de mi padre se me habían quedado cortos, así que finalmente dejé de desayunar durante unas semanas y reuní lo suficiente para una nueva adquisición.
Un disco.
Era Temptin' Temptations, de los Temptations. En la portada aparecían cinco jóvenes negros vestidos de blanco inmaculado, con chaquetas cortas de un botón y zapatos negros.
Recuerdo la primera vez que lo puse en el tocadiscos. Primero un crujido. Y luego, BAM. Una música elegante, evocadora, romántica. Chirriando, algo lejana, tomando la habitación. La canción era «Since I lost my baby».
Mirándolo, comprendí. Esa foto pintaba un mundo superior en el que los hombres eran dandis y toda la música era gloriosa, sus trajes nítidos, blancos, sus caras de ébano, sus zapatos relucientes. Donde cada minuto de vida era así: refinado y pleno, hermoso. Sin manchas. Un mundo irreal en el que nadie envejecía y había códigos de honor, y todo era puro y bello. Un mundo que no se parecía en nada a mi pueblo, a mi instituto, a los jugadores de fútbol que me perseguían para mantearme.
Mi tía abuela me ha contado muchas veces cómo entraba en mi cuarto y me encontraba dormido al lado del tocadiscos, durmiendo plácidamente en el suelo. Aquellos discos eran mi medicina y mi vaso de leche caliente, mi primer compadre, mi escondite y mi refugio, mis armas.
Con el tiempo llegaron las Marvelettes y los Impressions, los Temptations y Betty Harris, Bobby Womack y Al Green, Sam Dees y los Miracles. También Gloria Jones, Kim Weston, Barbara Acklin, Esther Williams, Curtis Mayfield, los 4 Tops, las Supremes, Chuck Jackson, Z.Z. Hill, Tommy Hunt, Billy Stewart, Sly & The Family Stone, Nina Simone, Billy Butler, Gene Chandler, Shirley Ellis y J.J. Jackson.
Nunca volví a escuchar otra cosa”
“Tuve un despertar súbito bajo la forma de pregunta ardiente: "¿Qué estoy haciendo acá?". Entonces él —ya saben, ni siquiera es amor— me preguntó sonriendo: "¿Te gusta?". No estábamos ahí construyendo el futuro. Yo sólo quería pasar unos cuantos días más bajando al mar de noche, comprándole ostras al viejo de la playa, nadando en la encantadora superficie de la vida. Así que lo miré, sonreí y, con mis mejores colmillos, le dije: "Me encanta".”

“Tuve un sobresalto. En el fondo, Horiki no me trataba como a un ser humano sino como a un deshonrado que escapó de la muerte, un fantasma imbécil, un cadáver viviente; y su amistad sólo consistía en utilizarme al máximo para sus placeres. Por supuesto, estos pensamientos no fueron nada agradables; pero, pensándolo bien, era comprensible que Horiki me viese de esa manera, ya que desde niño era indigno de ser humano, y quizá fuera muy razonable que hasta él me despreciara.”

“Tuổi tác không phải lúc nào cũng tăng theo chuỗi số tuần tự. Người ta có thể một ngày nào đó biến từ mười sáu sang ba mươi hai tuổi. Chính vào cái ngày đó ở nhà hàng đó, tôi, mười sáu tuổi, đã đột ngột thành ba mươi, hay ba mươi hai tuổi. Vào cái ngày tôi nhìn anh cả ngồi rã rời trong khói sườn nướng, đãi chị họ và tôi bữa sường trong khi chính anh không ăn dù chỉ một miếng, tôi tin rằng tôi đã ba mươi hai, đúng bằng tuổi của tôi bây giờ”

“TV [series] is a six-year decision. It's not four or five weeks. If a filmmaker and I don't get along, it's four weeks of your life, so whatever.”
“TV acting is so extremely intimate, because of the peculiar involvement of the viewer with the completion or "closing" of the TV image, that the actor must achieve a great degree of spontaneous casualness that would be irrelevant in movie and lost on the stage. For the audience participates in the inner life of the TV actor as fully as in the outer life of the movie star. Technically, TV tends to be a close-up medium. The close-up that in the movie is used for shock is, on TV, a quite casual thing.”

“TV and film both attract me equally. In both, you do search for a role that would be enjoyable to do, that has a great storyline and then, secondly, you look at the cast and the crew - are they respectable? How I look at it is my character - has the character got enough substance? It can't just be a one faced character, which is there to fill a gap. He has to have a purpose, so if it ticks all of those boxes then generally it's a good choice.”
“TV and film for me are not as exciting as the live stand-up show and getting the immediate reaction of the crowd. TV is a lot of hurry up and wait for your shot and less immediate reaction from people.”
“TV and film has defined my entire life.”
“TV and film taught me to think cinematically. Teaching others to edit, for example, provides a great deal of insight into the millions of ways in which given elements can be put together to tell a story.”
“TV and media create in many people a sense of entitlement to happiness, love and care from others. [...] The problem with this [...] is that we are stuck looking for lovability, worth and our true place in life from other mere mortals. If everyone is looking for it, who has a surplus of love and care to give to fill our need? [...]
We must accept that our lovability and worth don't come from others. They come from ourselves!”

“TV commercials make parenting look like there are going to be good days and bad days - like, it'll be this gentle wave, like you'll have a blissed-out, really wonderful day or two, and then, you know, then you'll have an issue. And what parenting is, is kind of earthquake.”
