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.

More quotes by Dolph Lundgren
I discovered martial arts, first judo and then karate.
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
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 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.
Dolph Lundgren
When I was a kid, I was like everyone else: afraid of getting nuked. We had drills in school - Sweden was very close to the Soviet Union. There was definitely a lot of tension.
Dolph Lundgren
I try to keep the martial arts up. It's a good thing, not just physically but also for your mind.
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.

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
I used to play drums when I was a kid, play the trombone.
Dolph Lundgren
I've never had a good line. Well, maybe 'I must break you'.
Dolph Lundgren
I like the old school heavy metal bands like AC/DC and Aeromith. I like that type of music. As the director, I tried to influence the type of music the bands in the movie would play.
Dolph Lundgren
Film is about what you are thinking. It's about what's inside.
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
I'm not doing any crazy stuff any more. Like I used to do high falls I used to jump from the motorcycle to the truck myself. That's unheard of today. Now nobody would ever do that. In those days it was stupid, man. I just did it because that's what it was, but that I don't do anymore.
Dolph Lundgren
I got good grades in school, but I'm not sure if I'm smart or if it just means I can study. I've never taken one of those IQ tests, and I don't want to. It's so pointless. As long as you enjoy life and have fun and you're healthy and happy, that's what matters.

You get a bigger paycheck if you are the hero. There is something good about it.

I think by planning an exercise regime, your diet follows to some extent.

My dad was in the Swedish armed forces, he was always reading up on different weapons from the Americans and Soviets. When I was a kid, I was in bed looking at his books, reading about the Red Army. So I was very aware of it. I had an interest in military matters ever since.
Dolph Lundgren
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.
Dolph Lundgren
Unless you're playing a real character based on a real person, if someone else has done it before, you're probably better off not watching it as an actor. Otherwise you end up trying to copy someone else.
