I think it may have been Tom Wolfe (if it wasn't, my apologies, Tom, and my apologies to whoever it was) who said in print once, 'David Carradine lives the life that Hunter Thompson only writes about.'

But, Tarantino has seen all of my movies. He's seen my good stuff, he's seen my bad stuff, he's seen the ones I directed, he's read my autobiography. There's an awful lot of things he knows about me, all of which I think had something to do with his casting.

You know, I've never actually really believed that death is inevitable. I just think it's a rumor.

There's an alternative. There's always a third way, and it's not a combination of the other two ways. It's a different way.

If you cannot be a poet, be the poem.

I don't need to convince anybody that I know kung fu, but maybe somebody needs to know that I really can act, without doing a Chinese accent or a funny walk.

I was involved in a web cartoon of Kung Fu with WB a few years back.
