In black neighborhoods, everybody appreciated comedy about real life. In the white community, fantasy was funnier. I started looking for the jokes that were equally hilarious across the board, for totally different reasons.
Will Smith
If we each get on a treadmill right now, one of two things is going to happen... either you're going to get off first or I am going to die. Period.
Will Smith
Coming from sitcom television and coming from music you burn up every single second. You don't leave anything there. You burn it up and you pass out when you walk off stage, so I took that concept into acting.
Will Smith
Well, all I know is what I read in the papers.
Will Smith
It's been rough for me trying to find my position in the struggle and where my voice is needed and helpful.

Why is life at this point in the twentieth century so focused upon the very beginning of life and the very end of life? What about the 80 years we have to live between those two inexorable bookends?
Will Smith
There's a certain delusional quality that all successful people have to have. You have to believe that something different than what has happened for the last 50 million years of history - you have to believe that something different can happen.
Will Smith
I believe that I can create whatever I want to create. If I can put my head on it right, study it, learn the patterns, and - it's hard to put into words, it's real metaphysical, esoteric nonsense, but I feel very strongly that we are who we choose to be.
Will Smith
Don't chase people. Be yourself, do your own thing and work hard. The right people - the ones who really belong in your life - will come to you. And Stay.
Will Smith
There ain't no problem that some other dude didn't have 1,000 years ago.
Will Smith
Begin each day as if it were on purpose.
Will Smith
If it was something that I really committed myself to, I don't think there's anything that could stop me becoming President of the United States.
Will Smith
My grandmother used to always say, 'People need to be worth something.'
Will Smith
There's a forgiveness that literary audiences will give you that film audiences don't give you. It's the two hour construct. You're in there and it needs to climax and finish.
Will Smith
The greatest dreams are always unrealistic.
Will Smith
There’s nothing you’ve ever been successful at that you didn’t work on every day.
