I have to humbly say people really like the bad guys.

Nature is a big part of my weekend. Whenever possible, I take Friday and Monday off and spend four days outdoors. We should remind ourselves that there was something here before us, a force more powerful than us.

Bruce Lee was the first guy to bring film recognition of Asian men not being wimps, so it made me want to be as powerful as he was.

That's the worst thing for an actor: when you say to someone, "Yeah, I was in that movie," and they say, "You were?"

Native Americans say, "It's a good day to die," and samurai live their life to die honorably, so that kind of energy creates a certain mindset of reactiveness with control to a point. And after that, it's gone.

In fact, I think new media is going to make a big difference with injecting more people of color into Hollywood and non-Hollywood.

Looking back at my career, if there's one word that most people use to describe me, it's intense.
