“The thing about the UK is we don’t really make that many great movies.”

There is something about yourself that you don’t know.

The insurance of working with a big, already successful franchise just gives you the chance to do other things on a more personal level.

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.

In the United States, we’ve always been held together by the belief that it doesn’t matter where you came from. It matters where you’re going.

And so I say to you and to others around the world, whether they wish us well or ill – do not underestimate us Americans. We lack neither strength nor wisdom.

What is a democrat? One who believes that the republicans have ruined the country. What is a republican? One who believes that the democrats would ruin the country.

I’m not in favor of the government mandating a prayer in school because our country was founded on the fact that no particular religious faith would have ascendance over or preferential treatment over any other.

I find it odd that suddenly people believe the United States is this Islamophobic country. I think this is the most tolerant country in the world.

If ever there was a time this country needed the intervention of God, it is now.

Every country can be defined through their food, their music and their language. That’s the soul of a country.

How dismal it is to see present day Americans yearning for the very orthodoxy that their country was founded to escape.
