More quotes by Jamie Foxx
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.
Jamie Foxx
Guys don't adapt as well as women do to getting their heart broken for the first time. It's tragic.
Jamie Foxx
When you're an actor or actress in this business, usually the natural progression is to direct, but a lot of times, we don't get a chance to get to it. Myself, I really want to get into it. I want to be the person who eventually doesn't have to be in front of the camera.
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?
Jamie Foxx
My Grandmother would say, 'Make sure you look good. Make sure you speak well. Make sure you remain that Southern gentleman that I've taught you to be.'
Jamie Foxx
But don't get caught out there looking goofy. It's weird. When you do something that stinks, it's going to last forever on the Internet. There's always someone in the audience with a camera phone and if you're not 100%, you're going to be watching yourself on YouTube.
Jamie Foxx
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.
Jamie Foxx
In looking at Hollywood and its structure, the director controls the medium, and I want to be in control of certain things. I want to be able to get my own ideas and my own feelings out there, and the only way to do that is to be behind the camera.
Jamie Foxx
if I fail as Jamie Foxx, I'll just change my name and come back as something else.
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.
Jamie Foxx
Will.i.am and I performed at Wango Tango. That's when my daughter said that I had made it in music.
Jamie Foxx
Mike Tyson's life is one of the most amazing American stories.
Jamie Foxx
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.
Jamie Foxx
Now ballads, I can mess around and get up on somebody on a ballad. People ain't seen it yet, but I can mess around and get up in there. I've had Ruben Studdard up in my house, Brian McKnight, Tank. Every once in a while I throw down with them.
Jamie Foxx
(I get to) kill all the white people... How great is that?
Jamie Foxx
I never planned to win an Oscar. When I auditioned for Ray, I was just thinking about what a great project it would be.
Jamie Foxx
Yeah, anytime anybody has a kid, you know how you feel when you have a kid, you look at the world differently because your kid's in the world now. When it's just you, whatever happens happens but now you pay more attention to political things. You pay more attention to things because your daughter or your son has to deal with these circumstances.
Jamie Foxx
You have a responsibility to your work, to your choices. Once you get to a certain level of quality and commitment, you don't want to go back and make Booty Call 7.
Jamie Foxx
My homies that are around me never give me that 'star pass'. I've hung out with some stars who are playing basketball and everyone let's them score all the baskets. Shooting pool, they let them make all the shots. My homies don't let me get away with that.
Jamie Foxx
I'm bad on Valentine's Day, but even worse on Christmas. I go shopping at nine o'clock on December 24th every year. Nobody else is there. I'm in Toys'R'Us all by myself. I get there five minutes before closing.
