Famous quotes by John Ridley:

"The first 'Barbershop' kicked the door open and said, 'Look, we're going to talk about whatever we want to talk about.' I think the responsible thing we have to do, even though it's a comedy, even though we have a lot of fun, and even though in some way we are a little more absurdist than the movies, is to recognize that just to bring up a topic for the sake of bringing it up is not enough."

"The first `Barbershop' kicked the door open and said, `Look, we're going to talk about whatever we want to talk about.'

"Doing adaptations is hard, ... because once you say, 'I'm going to take everything that millions of other readers have thought of and I'm going to make the definitive version of that,' ... I think it's a really hard thing to do."

"That was a movie that was really wild and really funny, but you remember Cleavon Little is a black sheriff in the Old West. It was about race and politics, but it was one hell of a good time."

"We want to be able to be political, but we don't want it, on a weekly basis, to be on race and politics and polemics. We want it to be a lot more fun."
