Someone asked me once what my philosophy of life was, and I said some crazy thing. I should have said, how the hell do I know?

I'm notorious for giving a bad interview. I'm an actor and I can't help but feel I'm boring when I'm on as myself.

I had to overcome the name Rock. If I'd been as hip then as I am now, I would have never consented to be named Rock.

The most dangerous thing for an actor is to refuse to listen to anyone else, to feel you know more than anybody.

I am not happy that I am sick. I am not happy that I have AIDS. But if that is helping others, I can at least know that my own misfortune has had some positive worth.
