Acting, I started when I was six and a half years-old, on Broadway with Kurt Weill.
Billy Dee Williams
I was in the National Academy of Fine Arts and Design, on a scholarship. I was - still am - an artist. They were looking for an actor for 'Take a Giant Step,' and a producer liked my look and asked if I could act. I said, 'Yep!' Then I got into acting more or less just to make money for paints and canvases.
Billy Dee Williams
I tend to approach characters not based on ethnicity but on some unique individual qualities, and I've set my whole life that way. I don't want any sort of limitations imposed on my work. If you truly want to be a creative person, you can't limit yourself.
Billy Dee Williams
I am an artist no matter what I do. I live for creativity. I think everyone should. It is the antithesis of being destructive.
Billy Dee Williams
The world moves fast, but change isn't always a good thing when you got it right the first time around.
