There is no substitute for hardwork. Always be humble and hungry.

In my entire career, I've never cried, consistently, through a movie, ever.

What matters is performances, regardless of what the name is, whether it's The Rock - which is my nickname and people call me that all the time - it's no big deal. So, whether it's The Rock or Dwayne Johnson, in terms of being recognised I just think that the goal is to be recognised as a good actor. I don't put much thought or weight into the name, or the name change, or what it is, or what does it mean? It's just a nickname.

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

Right now the best way that I can impact the world is through entertainment. One day, and that day will come, I can impact the world through politics. The great news is that I am American, therefore I can become President. But don't forget: I am G.I. Joe.

Success at anything will always come down to this: focus & effort. And we control both.

We all love challenges.
