I know I can't play funny roles in movies. I tried, and it didn't work.

Action is always seen as the bottom rung of thespian endeavour, that's just the way it is.

I'm more focused and have a greater sense of challenge, because I constantly feel the weight of time.

When life hits you pretty hard, you can go into a dark corner.

I have tremendous respect for fighters and I always tell people that boxing in movies is one thing but when you get into the ring for real, even the worst heavyweight in the world is going to murder you. You've just got to appreciate the pain and the suffering and the glory and skill that goes into what they do. That's why I love the sport so much.

A lot of time people are like, "oh my God, you're stereotyped." Good, then you're known for something.

Eventually writing became more interesting to me than acting.
