“I like heist movies. I like action movies that set all the elements into one and a chance to do something that comes from a great stable of writing.”

Musclemen grow on trees. They can tense their muscles and look good in a mirror. So what? I’m interested in practical strength that’s going to help me run, jump, twist, punch.

It’s hard to predict what kinds of people are going to enjoy it [film]. And what people ain’t. That’s the movies. You never know.

I like to relax. Spend it with people that I’ve grown up with, or people that I care about, and just relax, sit around doing nothing or sitting on a beach.

Every actor has a strength, and sometimes you just respond to things that you see yourself better at. I’m aware of what I can and can’t do.

It’s not like I’m dying to do work that’s taken seriously, and I’m not looking to become a thespian. It’s not what I’m looking for; I’m just looking to do quality work.

Without doing the big blockbusters, I wouldn’t be able to find the money to go after little projects that I want to do.

It’s something I never dreamed I’d be doing, making movies.

Action comedy, if you can get it right, it is, for me, a particularly brilliant genre. It really is.

Some of my favorite movies are action movies. You want something good to say. That comes from good writing. But writing is not a skill I possess, unfortunately.

Looking good and feeling good go hand in hand. If you have a healthy lifestyle, your diet and nutrition are set and you’re working out, you’re going to feel good.

My father used to run auctions. He’s now a singer in the Canary Islands.

Usually I’m trying to work with people that I’ve worked with before, so we have a certain amount of know-how and what we’re going to do together.

One of the toughest guys in the world is Randy Couture – he is the true epitome of what a tough guy is.

I used to play a lot of racket sports, tennis and squash.

And if people come up and say they like the movies you’re in, it’s a great compliment.

Look at someone like Edward Norton. A truly phenomenal actor. He’s definitely went to school and trained.

Inaction is perhaps the greatest mistake of all.

Life is like a cash register, in that every account, every thought, every deed, like every sale, is registered and recorded.

Believing prayer will lead to whole-hearted action.

Never do today what you can do tomorrow, because something may occur to make you regret your premature action.

Can you worship a God who isn’t obligated to explain His actions to you? Could it be your arrogance that makes you think God owes you an explanation?

Having faith often means doing what others see as crazy.

People want guidance, not rhetoric. They need to know what the plan of action is, and how it will be implemented. They want to be given responsibility to help solve the problem and authority to act on it.

As President Nixon says, presidents can do almost anything, and President Nixon has done many things that nobody would have thought of doing.
