More quotes by Dolph Lundgren
There are a lot of great athletes who stop working out, and they get out of shape like everybody else in their 30s and 40s.
Dolph Lundgren
I think the energy I give off is quite non-confrontational. That's something you learn from karate. Once you try to be a tough guy, you've got to pay up. You've got to prove yourself. And that's exhausting.
Dolph Lundgren
When I got cast in 'Rocky IV,' I had never seen a film camera before. And here I was in this boxing movie.
Dolph Lundgren
I think by planning an exercise regime, your diet follows to some extent.

Kristina [Klebe] plays her character [in Don't Kill It] pretty straight, and because my character's so crazy and colorful, it works quite well. Kristina really loved the part, so she was very accommodating and willing to explore it and work hard.

I do a little bit of yoga-style meditation. Relaxing and breathing even just one minute a day makes a big difference.
Dolph Lundgren
Jackie Chan, I've known him, he's a great guy. I know he's very watchable and fun. He's perfect, actually.
Dolph Lundgren
First the movie, the actual playing of the role and trying to deliver what everybody wanted. Then, when the film came out, there was instant fame. I was just a kid from Sweden, I didn't know what was going on.
Dolph Lundgren
Film is about what you are thinking. It's about what's inside.
Dolph Lundgren
At least once a week, I try to have one day where I have nothing planned so I can get up and just go back to bed and lay around and recharge my batteries.
Dolph Lundgren
It was fun to talk too much [as Jebediah Woodley], to keep running your mouth whether the other characters want to hear it or not. That's part of what made this guy fun.
Dolph Lundgren
My problem is that people get intimidated by someone big and beautiful like me. They hate to think I can be smart as well.
Dolph Lundgren
You realize as a director that when you are cutting a film, you want to have alternatives. You need color and choices. You don't want four takes that are identical.
Dolph Lundgren
I think the violence is important. It all depends on the genre. Rambo was ultra-violent, and I think it worked. You have to give Stallone credit. You have to respect him for taking that shot, and taking the violence all the way. He was the first one to do that in a long time. It fricking worked.
Dolph Lundgren
I think religious movies are more of a subset of the broader historical trend, and also the fact that there is more history in Europe, whereas in America, America is about the future. People in Europe think more of the past, and that's why I think filmmakers are drawn to it more.
Dolph Lundgren
I used to play drums when I was a kid, play the trombone.
Dolph Lundgren
You really have to work hard to create a three-dimensional character. You have to rehearse and explore and take your time. You can't just memorize your lines and do it on the fly.
Dolph Lundgren
When I was a teenager, my dad used to put a lot of pressure on me to be successful, and I'd really beat myself up about things like losing martial arts competitions.
Dolph Lundgren
You get a bigger paycheck if you are the hero. There is something good about it.
Dolph Lundgren
I would think that the drumstick is probably pretty good. Because you can put that anywhere. If you are a strong guy, you can put it in the throat, the nose, the mouth, the ear. It's also easily concealed. The guitar is pretty good, but you have to break it. And that's pretty difficult.
