Omari Hardwick

I would honestly say I'm in the turtle's race. My journey is a marathon.

I've been writing for years, you know, and when I get to a particular place, city, or different locale, I find myself first of all being challenged by those that love me to write more.

I've definitely had my moments in relationships where I've been able to say yes, I have been heartbroken, my heart has been broken.

The reality is our story and the way we love and our taste in clothing and everything else. And what we ambitiously feel we can be.

Actors are intelligent. Yet, many of them do not communicate well. That's what makes it so hard to have a relationship with one.

You know, I think anybody who has been in relationships has access to heartbreak - I don't think we have to go far to find it, whether we inflicted the heartbreak or whether we were the recipient of it.

There were uncles in my life that definitely knew the street life.

That point of life when I learned I could cook, that always made me understand what cooks felt like feeding other people. It's okay to receive, but it's really cool to give, so food is to me sexy because it's the fact that someone is giving it to someone else.

Some of the most amazing people I've met in life are cops.

I'm addicted to the hotel life. It's humbling and fly at the same time.

As an African-American male born with a couple of strikes against you because of your skin color, I think it's very, very important to have some positive role models around, especially male influences.

If I could remake any Eighties project, it would be less an action flick than a character-driven drama with a rich story to tell.
