“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.”

I should never go with rumors because they’re often not correct.

I was a sportsman for years. I’ve always had a physical background. I’ve always had an interest in boxing and fighting. To get physical in films is a dream. I love it.

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.

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.

Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.

Age gives you an excuse for not being very good at things that you were not very good at when you were young.

Whatever you build, build with care. Anyone who has built something big, has done it with care.

Don’t underestimate the importance of happiness. As long as you’re happy, who cares what you do?

They will only care when you’re gone.

Never be so busy as not to think of others.

Everything that happens, happens as it should, and if you observe carefully, you will find this to be so.

I don’t care that they stole my idea. I care that they don’t have any of their own
