Famous quotes by Jamie Foxx:

"In our music, in our everyday life, there are so many negative things. Why not have something positive and stamp it with blackness?"

"With the first album, the timing wasn't right and it wasn't a good situation. The situation is perfect now. The movie set everything up and people are more accepting now. The good thing is that it's not forced. If people dig the music, it will do well, and if they don't -- well, I won't do an album for another 10 years."

"If Fantasia does the movie it's completely in the stratosphere. It's nuts,"

"Fortunately now, I may not be doing 'Booty Call 2,'"

"I've been a sports fan all my life, and like most other actors, I'm convinced I could have been a pro athlete if Hollywood hadn't come calling,"

"The reason you have to do this is you have to let them know that you're real."

"We can't wave a magic wand and get rid of any of these people's problems, but what they want is they want to be heard,"

"Give it up for Ray Charles and his beautiful legacy. And thank you, Ray Charles for living."

"[On fellow Oscar winner Sidney Poitier:] 'I saw you once and I looked into your eyes and there was a connection.' He said, 'I give to you responsibility,' and I'm taking that responsibility tonight. Thanks, Sidney."

"[In tribute to his grandmother] She still talks to me now, only now she talks to me in my dreams. And I can't wait to go to sleep tonight because we have a lot to talk about. I love you."

"Having a stage name is like having a Superman complex. I go into the telephone booth as Eric Bishop and come out as Jamie Foxx."

"That's what's great about the arts. Everything inspires you, and you get a chance to grow from watching other people and how they do their work."

"Will.i.am and I performed at Wango Tango. That's when my daughter said that I had made it in music."

"Man, after all my grandma put into me learning the piano, that was a hard day, telling her I was telling jokes for a living."

"If you look at how long the Earth has been here, we're living in the blink of an eye. So, whatever it is you want to do, you go out and do it."

"A lot of people may not know how competitive it is to play classical music, because when you think about it, the music that you're playing is music that's been here for years. And all you're trying to do is improve upon it when you play."

"If I'm in the studio, I'm completely on music. I try to go to that place and that's the toughest thing for me to do. When I'm with other musicians, sometimes I go back to, almost like, childhood, because that's what I always wanted to be."

"As black folks we're always sensitive. As a black person it's always racial."

"My worst hair experience was when I was trying to relax my hair and my grandmother did it. It went all straight and I looked like a black Bee Gee."

"The most interesting thing about acting is when you go to the dark places, that's a lot of energy. When you go to the happiest places, it's also a lot of energy."
