"I saw a lot of things in Harlem," he told journalist Diane Haithman in 1985, per Variety. "It was the kind of place where if you lived on one block and you wanted to go a few blocks away, you had to take a couple of guys with you, or else you would get your ass kicked."

Of his prolific career, he said, "I think the reason that I haven't disappeared (as a popular 'heavy') is that the heavies I play are all leaders. I never play a wishy-washy anything. They're interesting roles, because when you leave the theater, you remember these kinds of guys."
