“People take chances every now and then, and you don’t want to disappoint them.”

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.

In Hollywood, people get reputations, just rumors that are passed down.

If anybody knows how to make action movies it’s Sly.

I’m not a method actor; I hope you know that!

I like Jackie Chan because I’ve been a fan of Jackie’s forever. He’s broken every bone in his body for his commitment and dedication to doing his own stunts. So he’s the real deal.

I’ve come from nowhere, and I’m not shy to go back.

Some of my best experiences are with writer/directors. Guy Ritchie is one. I feel they have a clearer view of what they want to do. They haven’t got to try and interpret someone’s writing; it’s all theirs. I really admire that.

Guy Ritchie, he thinks going to drama school is the worst thing in the world.

In seats where perhaps we don’t expect to win at the next general election, the new infrastructure gives us a chance to win local council seats and to build a campaigning base which could help us to win in the future.

I feel like everyone who goes to The University of Texas is blessed and lucky to be there because they’re getting a chance to be as good as they can be.

I suppose it is, but I think it would entail doing the same things over and over again without taking chances, without taking risks or exploring our limits, without finding out what we can and can’t do.

Voting Tory will cause your wife to have bigger breasts and increase your chances of owning a BMW M3.

My chances of being PM are about as good as the chances of finding Elvis on Mars, or my being reincarnated as an olive.

I have as much chance of becoming Prime Minister as of being decapitated by a frisbee or of finding Elvis.
