More quotes by Angela Bassett
Acting is my calling, not my career.
Angela Bassett
Don't settle for average. Bring your best to the moment. Then, whether it fails or succeeds, at least you know you gave all you had. We need to live the best that's in us.
Angela Bassett
My mom was always pretty supportive. She saw me do plays and she'd always act out the parts I did.
Angela Bassett
Memories are meant to fade, Lenny. They're designed that way for a reason.
Angela Bassett
The three things I said when I came out of school were I want to work consistently, I want to do good work and I want to be paid fairly, and that's happened. But I didn't become an actress for the money. I do it for other reasons.
Angela Bassett
My mom was always pretty supportive. She saw me do plays and she'd always act out the parts I did. My aunt, who played a big part in my life, was a little bit more reserved, because if they don't see you on TV every week they think you must be starving.
Angela Bassett
This is a career about images. It's celluloid they last for ever. I'm a black woman from America. My people were slaves in America, and even though we're free on paper and in law, I'm not going to allow you to enslave me on film, in celluloid, for all to see.
Angela Bassett
In feature film world I'm very much...a hired hand. It's a world of Tom Cruise, Julia Roberts, Mel Gibson - they're able to produce and to star and it's, that's not my world.
Angela Bassett
I like the nice guys. I like when they show the stories, the human element behind it all.
Angela Bassett
I'm thinking about directing, but I know it's a lot of work and I appreciate what directors do and I would like to be good at it. The opportunity has presented itself four to five times, and I usually said no because of the script.
Angela Bassett
I don't really like horror shows, horror movies, or any of that. I'm really a lightweight, in terms of that.
Angela Bassett
The world has white people and black people in it. Even in Harlem.
Angela Bassett
I would have to say honestly I was very pleased to be in a movie whether it was good or bad with De Niro, Norton and Brando even if I don't have any scenes with them I thought it was pretty good company to keep.
Angela Bassett
Of course you want to do all the research that you can, but it's impossible to take a life and the boundaries of an hour and a half, so there is hope there will be understanding about that also.
Angela Bassett
I hope I just continue to be passionate about the roles and to always endeavor to bring clarity and honesty to the table and different ideas.
Angela Bassett
As an actor, you're used to putting on characters, taking them off, becoming someone else, doing your research, and working on that.
Angela Bassett
I can give you the King's English and then I can take it to the street, but do both or do one and don't do one knowing only the street. That's going to hold you back because what comes out is going to impress people, and it will impress them negatively.
Angela Bassett
I am content that the work that I've done is wonderful.
Angela Bassett
It’s more than just saying lines and turning the light on. You have to drive the story - there’s a technical aspect.
Angela Bassett
I love vegan choices, raw food choices, and I’ll eat whatever I have to in order to get into whatever shape I need to get into for any one particular role.
Angela Bassett
