More quotes by Michael K. Williams
Addiction is a health issue, not a social issue, not a crime, not a legal issue.
Michael K. Williams
Ending a television character that you've been, especially someone like Omar Little, it hurts. For me, it's a huge thing. You feel like a part of you is gone.
Michael K. Williams
My dancing came about as a way to be cool, actually. I knew early on that I was not a street kid. I didn't have the moxie, what it took to run the streets with the dudes that I grew up wanting to emulate. But I had a huge need to be accepted, so I found that I could be the party king. I did drugs really well, and I partied really well.
Michael K. Williams
I know plenty of adults who act like teenagers.
Michael K. Williams
I do happen to love Honey Nut Cheerios. I don't know if I want to walk down to the store in my pajamas for them. But I do love them.
Michael K. Williams
I am the epitome of the underdog. By societies standards I should have been dead a long time ago, and I was nobody's gangster, I wasn't a thug, I wasn't selling drugs on the corner - I was scared of that.
Michael K. Williams
I come to work on time. I focus on my job. I bust my scenes out and everything else kind of happens from there.
Michael K. Williams
Revenge is not a positive state of mind or energy to indulge your self in.
Michael K. Williams
When you love someone unconditionally, you go to war for them, and they do that for each other. They know they can call each other when they need each other. In this day and age, everyone needs a friend like in Hap and Leonard.
Michael K. Williams
I'm looking for diversity, all my characters may or may not be on the wrong side of the tracks. It doesn't mean that they're all the same.
Michael K. Williams
I don't believe in typecasting. Just because all my characters may come from the other side of the tracks doesn't mean they are all the same. You don't stereotype people and generalize people, everyone's different.
Michael K. Williams
Our criminal justice system has swallowed up too many people I love. I am proud to join the ACLU in the fight to make mass incarceration a thing of the past.
Michael K. Williams
No one wakes up one day and decides they want to become a drug dealer or they want to be a stick-up kid. Those decisions are made after a series of events have happened in one's life.
Michael K. Williams
My main goal, starting out as a young actor, was to carry the reins that Pac left off and to reach the depths as an actor that I know he would have reached had he still been here with us.
Michael K. Williams
Having been through the muck and mire, I've had my own brush with bad choices.
Michael K. Williams
Music's been part of my entire life. It's in my DNA.
Michael K. Williams
Our criminal justice system has swallowed up too many people I love.
Michael K. Williams
I'm good with all my roles, I've never had a bad role.
Michael K. Williams
My goal is to end mass incarceration and change the laws to stop locking up low-level, nonviolent drug charges. Stop charging drug addicts as criminals.
Michael K. Williams
My job is to bring to life the character, not to put the words on the paper.
Michael K. Williams
