“I cook a lot. For my friends - I do a lot of dinner parties and stuff.”
“People have always had difficulty saying my name or were resistant to calling me 'Sir' even though my name starts with 'Ser.' Growing up, my family always called me Darius. They're the only ones that are allowed to. All my close friends call me 'Ser' or 'D' and on sets most people call me 'Ser'D.' I'm cool with that.”
“I was a nerdy jock.”
“Little girls need someone to look up to - and little boys need strong women to look up to, as well. I don't think your heroes should be relegated to someone who's the same sex or from the same background as you. Little boys should grow up wanting to be like Serena Williams.”
“For me, the audition process always starts with a few questions: Who am I? What am I trying to get across? Why am I trying to get that across? Where am I emotionally? It's a lot to do with my foundation, and I go from there.”
“Have respect, hard work, faith and dedication, all these things. No matter what environment you're in, they should keep you strong. Knowing this, I surround myself with people who have similar beliefs. People who don't let me forget who I am or where I come from.”
“Jack Black, I think, is probably the nicest person I've ever met in my life.”
“Miami feels like home to me.”
“I always knew I wanted to act but I was really afraid to desire something that seemed so unrealistic and a long shot. I was a kid memorizing entire movies and TV episodes but I didn't take it seriously until I was about 19. Then I moved to New York and took it head on.”
“I was running from the calling of God because I didn't want the responsibility of standing upright and living under a microscope. I know now that others' destinies rely on my destiny and purpose. I've accepted the challenge and am actively walking in that purpose.”
“My spiritual journey began at conception.”
“I wanted to be a doctor, that was the goal.”
“Do what you love at all costs and maintain your faith in God. Nothing we have is of our own strength so as long as we remember where we came from, it will inform us where we are going.”
“I think 'The Big Bang Theory' is one of the greatest written TV shows of all time.”
“If I could pick any character from any game to represent me it would be Ryu from 'Street Fighter.' He's so cool and walks with so much still confidence.”
“I was a biology major. But I also happened to be captain of the basketball team and first chair in band.”
“What I do regret is working too hard sometimes instead of really enjoying my youth. I'm trying to make an effort to stop and smell the roses now.”
“I had social anxiety to the max. I was scared of my own shadow! But as I grew, I got more comfortable with myself.”
“I'm a decent dancer - I can hold my own.”
“Nothing beats a jog, and perhaps a push-up or two, by the ocean on a beautiful day.”
