“Once you believe in who you are and who you were born to be, it can be very powerful.”

Success isn’t always about ‘greatness’. It’s about consistency. Consistent hard work gains success. Greatness will come.

It’s easy to be a bad ass, it’s easy to act like a bad ass, easy to act like a tough guy, it’s easy to be a diva, and it’s easy to be self absorbed. The list goes on and on but to me, I always just find it more important to be nice and kind.

When you walk up to opportunities door, don’t knock it, Kick that B*tch in, smile and introduce yourself

I was brought up as an only child, and we were very close. But when I was 14, we got evicted. We came home to a padlock, and I looked up at my mom and she was crying, and there was nothing to do.

When he speaks to you he speaks with an earnest vibe and an earnest energy.

Our reputations precedes us. If I know someone is not nice, not kind, an asshole – I generally don’t want to work with them.

My philosophy is, it’s always very rewarding when you can make an audience laugh. I don’t mind making fun of myself. I like self-deprecating comedy. But I’d like you to laugh with me occasionally, too.

We do today what they won’t, so tomorrow we accomplish what they can’t.

Change doesn’t begin when we get knocked on our ass. It begins the moment we decide to get back up on our own feet.

I like to use the hard times of the past to motivate me today.

Be the person that when your feet touch the floor in the morning the devil says, “awe s***.. they’re up”.

I think that always makes it fun, trying to create a heroic character and putting your own twist on it and injecting your own personality into it.

As long as I can do something that I am passionate about and that I can really enjoy and the audience can enjoy. That is where my enthusiasm comes from.

BLOOD, SWEAT & RESPECT. First two you GIVE. Last one you EARN.

In life we get an opportunity to do some cool things, and some things that are fun and that we like doing.

I’ve always loved the showmanship of professional wrestling. While I love making movies, I love that platform, too.

At its core, I believe leadership is about instilling confidence in others.

I believe that we all get rewarded and punished according to whether we operate in harmony or in conflict with nature’s laws, and that all societies will succeed or fail in the degrees that they operate consistently with these laws.

Each man believes only his experience.

But I also believe that a lot of gun owners would agree that AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not on the streets of our cities.

A lot of people have the ambition, but they never ask themselves, Do I really believe I can do this?

It’s now time for me to pass Star Wars on to a new generation of filmmakers. I’ve always believed that Star Wars could live beyond me, and I thought it was important to set up the transition during my lifetime.

I still believe I have a part to play for England.

I don’t have any secret sauce and I’m no smarter than anyone else. I will say I have surrounded myself with unbelievable talent that has made my job easier.
