when he lost courage when he felt like
just giving up just lie down and not get
up again he would recite it and it would
give him the what he needed to keep
the other night that covers me black as
the pit from pole to pole I learned it
when I was in school yeah did you
believe yeah I think whatever God there
may be from my unconquerable soul the
fell clutch of circumstance I have not
cried aloud under the bludgeonings of
fate my head is bloody but unbowed
beyond this place of Wrath and tears
looms but the shadow of the shade
he had the minister of the year’s finds
and shall find me unafraid matters not
how Strait the gate now punishment
charged the scroll I am the master of my
fate I am the captain myself your job as
an actress to give it your best shot
each every time so yes I’m going into it
with the idea that I’ll play it to the
best of my ability and they wouldn’t
give it to me
the role if they didn’t think I was
capable of pulling it off oh I wouldn’t
take it if I didn’t think I was capable
of pulling it off like I don’t say his
first time when I was 8 years old
power one of the things that was aware
of that
I own the stage at 8:00 so no it isn’t
far off in America but we still and we
still here don’t abandon the idea that
it isn’t finite it isn’t finite if you
were born where were you born me yeah
Baton Rouge Louisiana batteries General
Hospital you know Louisiana I was born
I had a long haul from where I came from
to here but here we are right so proof
is in the proof of the pudding is in the
eating and here we sit at the dining
table but it’s hard to when you say that
to some people because they say oh there
you go with a pull yourself up by the
bootstraps thing and you know you’re
just being respectable not everybody can
do that
look everybody can
but it doesn’t courage courage is the
key to life itself
a lot of people who are born in
situation of us survive just I’ll never
get out of this so they won’t I say to
people say well I would like to have
done so and so and so so you could have
done it so when I couldn’t get out of
here man the bus runs every day exactly
right yeah you exist if there if there
if you can conceive it in your mind if
you can think of it you can do it that’s
the human condition again we can imagine
that we can do it right and I think that
that the condition of each individual
human got on spades the very first time
when I was 8 years old I was brilliant
then I got on stage again four years
later when I was 12
brilliant again so by the time I was 13
it was pretty much a foregone conclusion
and everybody else’s mine teachers
parents that acting was gonna be my
like made a conscious decision I’m going
to be an act I don’t think you do I
think you just that’s what you do there
for us because I was it as it turns out
I was romanticizing that whole idea you
know we were refighting World War two
as I was growing up so we had all these
heroic movies and I fell in love with
the idea of flying and then when I got
into the Air Force had just big
eye-opener that racism was rampant there
also and that I didn’t I not is
qualifying or suit it’s it’s better word
for military life
unquestioning obedience to a lot of
things that I think of stupid didn’t
quite go over well so when I got out I
was I was an early discharge it was
almost dishonorable you know because I
just really didn’t fit but the catalyst
actually was I did get to sit in a jet
trainer because I had a lot of people
behind me to get me into flight school
in this town but sitting there it
occurred to me that this is absolutely
not what I want it’s it isn’t movies
it’s for real these you know this little
red button on a joystick controls guns
with real bullets and I’m sick I said
that for quite a while and knew that if
I made a strafing run and needed a
camera here and I needed the people to
be able to get up and go back to number
one so I got out of that plane on the
runway at North Island Air Station a
Naval Air Station and I walked away from
that and towards acting I knew that it
was all about the movies it was all
about the movies their little horn
Tooting I can do for myself is merely
back in the hall there young people
young actors struggling we because I go
along with it want to assure them that
it’s best to keep going don’t don’t give
up I tell kids it’s the surest way to
lose is to quit and in this business
it’s really difficult because there were
so many talented people out there
scrambling to get through that first
Dewar that being able to get there and
do it is stroke of a lot of things
including luck well as I said I went to
the movies all the time I’ve seen the
movies and at some point it struck me
rather dramatically how much I wasn’t in
the movies would you give purely in an
acting sense to yourself 30 40 years ago
same advice I gave myself 30 to 40 years
Act there are unfortunately those of us
that’s way out there in the ether
somewhere I want to be a working actor
you can pull that off so act work work I
someone asked me and watts and you were
about to do it what would you do if you
weren’t an act if you didn’t make it as
an actor what would you do I have no
idea I would act somewhere maybe I’d be
driving a cab maybe I’m working
somebody’s yard whatever I’m doing I’m
going to belong to somebody’s little
theater group
auditioned I don’t think I even got to
audition I interviewed for the movie the
thing the remake so I read the script
and I go back for the audition and the
producer or the director one was said
did you inscribe that say yes what do
you think I said well you’ve got 11
people at the South Pole eight of the
scientists and then you have a cook a
mechanic and something else
they’re all black none of the scientists
are what do you think I think neat let’s
just add and get that job the other
night that covers me black as the pit
from pole to pole I learned it when I
was in school you know did you believe
yeah I think whatever God there may be
from my unconquerable soul
the fell collective circumstance I have
not cried aloud under the bludgeonings
of fate my head is bloody but unbowed
beyond this place of Wrath and tears
looms but the shadow of the shade
yet the Menace of the year’s finds and
shall find me unafraid matters not how
Strait the gate how punishment charged
the scroll I am the master of my fate I am the captain
just giving up just lie down and not get
up again he would recite it and it would
