It's been a struggle for me because I had a chance to be white and refused.

I made my first white women friends in college; they loved me and were loyal to our friendship, but I understood, as they did, that they were white women and that whiteness mattered.

If you're that hypersensitive about color and don't have a sense of humor, don't marry out of your race.

If the Great Spirit had desired me to be a white man, he would have made me so in the first place.

I was always told that I'd have to do a movie with a white guy in order to get the money. That's the way it was. That made me feel that I should have chosen some other profession, so I could have gotten my just deserts.

I love going to other people's weddings, but I have never desired a big white wedding for myself, and it has never been put on me as a pressure, an expectation.

There are opportunities that I have because I'm a white dude, and it's controversial because that's just the way that the world we live in kind of is.

I think I've been in situations where they looked at me and just see some rich white guy - they don't see me at all.

Sometimes I even feel funny to say I'm in a biracial marriage because people are like, 'Oh, he's Asian?' The subtext is, 'Who cares? You didn't marry a black person.'
