Ving Rhames (2013)

Things have been better for Dani: she got kicked out of her apartment for drunkenly mistaking her boyfriend's boss for Ving Rhames, she's out of money and her rent is due. Despite all that she manages to form an unlikely bond with a low rent mugger wearing an Air Jordan track jacket.

Famous quotes by Ving Rhames:

"For me, acting was a way of releasing all of this stuff that I had inside - and a way for me to tell the stories of the people I knew, so that their spirit could live through me."

"I think God has blessed all of us with at least one gift, so I think it's just a matter of do we find it within our lifetime?"

"Are you intimidated by me? Because if you're intimidated by me, that's something you'll have to deal with."

"I like to say that I didn't choose acting - acting chose me."

"There's gonna be a bill passed sooner or later that's gonna draw a line. We have to just think about, 'What have we become? Why is all of this fuss over another human being?"

"My wife is a former homicide detective, LAPD. The wonderful thing that I was able to capture is my wife's experiences from human and professional and how do you deal with some of the atrocities that happen in LA and not bring them home. How do you cut off the human side and just maintain being professional?"

"I feel that being an artist is about giving, and I'd like to give this to you, Mr. Jack Lemmon,"

"I saw how, when my brother smoked reefer, it made my mother cry. He was 16 at the time. And I saw that she broke down and cried. I never wanted to hurt my mother, so I kept away from drugs."

"You don't have to make, you know, $3 Million dollars a movie, or $20 Million dollars a movie, but if you make a living doing what you love doing, then that's success to me."

"Quite honestly I never had a desire to be an actor. I tell people, I did not choose acting; acting chose me. I never grew up wanting to be an actor. I wanted to play football. In about 9th grade an English teacher told me I had a talent to act. He said I should audition for a performing arts high school so I did on a whim. I got accepted."

"My approach to the work is the same, whether I had the lead or a supporting role. I consider myself a character actor in the true sense of the word. Unless I'm doing my autobiography, I'm playing a character."

"I don't give Hollywood the power to limit me. Only God can limit me."

"Since God is the foundation of my life, anything that streams from that can only be positive."

"I was never a struggling actor, for which I feel very blessed."

"The only difference between working on a huge-budget film and a lesser-budget film, is the quality of lunch and dinner."

"I grew up in a poverty-stricken neighborhood, but I didn't really know I was a deprived, poverty-stricken child until the media made me aware of it."
