“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.”

A lot of action movies today seem to have scenes that just lead up to the action.

And it was a great experience, you know, to travel the world and compete at a certain level. It teaches you discipline, focus, and certainly keeps you out of trouble.

A lot of actors are frustrated because they want to do things that are different and test themselves. Character actors are always looking for something the opposite of what they did.

I’ve been unfortunate enough to be working, and recovering from a few injuries now and again.

Jet was very busy. I’ve been inspired by a lot of his movies.

I know, a lot of the films I’ve done, it’s obvious I’m going to beat up six guys and just walk out the door. There’s not a lot of motivating factors – it’s just action for the sake of action.

I’m enthusiastic and ambitious, and I work hard.

A kid is something precious, and you want to protect it and keep it fun. I’m not a dad, but I’ve seen people and how they behave with their kids.

In L.A., it’s very hard to have some kind of conscience of some style out there. The weather’s too hot; there’s no seasons.

I’m not as big a soccer fan as people might imagine, being British.

I endured many weeks of it, but I had a big background in martial arts and fighting as a kid, so kind of all the problems got brushed away and I was ready.

I’m used to being efficient and a guy that can do more than the average guy can.

I’m prepared to take risks. And every movie that I do is a risk. No one knows what the movie is going out turn out like.

Once you expose your private life, if you give one little bit, the floodgates are open and everyone’s got a free range for you.

The fight training was very extensive, a lot of stretching, a lot of coordination of balance exercises.

I’m more into MMA than any other sport. I watch a lot of the UFC fights. I have since it first came onto the scene.

You’re going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it’s always their actions you should judge them by. It’s actions, not words, that matter.

There is a need for a movement of non-violent direct action.

The transformation of silence into language and action is an act of self-revelation .

The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud.

Forgiveness is not an occasional act, it is a constant attitude.

Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity, it is an act of justice.

To become successful you must be a person of action. Merely to “know” is not sufficient. It is necessary both to know and do.

Never confuse movement with action.
