The first eight years of schooling was with all white people. So that helped me to understand how white people think. I think that transition is what helped me bridge the gap, because that's what my success has really been about: bridging the gap between the black community and the white community.

My skin is hard when it comes to my music. But with my movies, I'm still a virgin in a lot of ways. I'm not used to being shot down for no reason.

Something hurts, lean in. You just lean into that point until it loses its power over you. There's a certain amount of suffering that you have to be willing to sustain if you want to have a good life. And the real trick is to be able to sustain it with your heart open and still be loving.

If you look at somebody like 50 Cent, ain't nobody telling 50 what to do and how to do what he does. He has a vision of who he wants to be, and he instructs everybody along those lines.
Will Smith
Image
I try to connect to human emotion. I'm always looking for something primal, something really base that is beyond language, that people understand beyond language.
Will Smith
Image
You'd be surprised how much you don't understand what other people see your actions as how other people view the things you say and the things that you do. And a lot of times just clarifying what your intentions are with people makes a huge difference.

It's great to be black in Hollywood. When a black actor does something, it seems new and different just by virtue of the fact that he's black.

I wake up every morning believing today is going to be better than yesterday.
Will Smith
Image
I want the world to be better because I was here. I want my life, I want my work, my family, I want it to mean something and if you are not making someone else's life better then you are wasting your time.
Will Smith

Because I know that hope and fear are connected, I put my mask of hope on.

I refuse to accept anything less than 100% of what I can achieve.
