More quotes by Dwayne Johnson
When I train, I'm peeled away. I'm at my rawest state. Generally there's spit coming out my mouth, sweat pouring out my body and every once in awhile I may have just finished throwing up. Those are pretty good indications that it's not time to talk and you should just pass me by.
Dwayne Johnson
I love making people laugh and feel good, and that's awesome and special for me to be able to do that, but there really is nothing like kicking ass whether it's on a major scale, or whether it's in more of a dramatic fashion. Being physical and taking care of business the old-fashioned way is something that I love doing.
Dwayne Johnson
Every once in a while I get the highly inappropriate proposal which is like, 'Wow, Really! You don't even know me and I don't know you at all, and you want that to happen? Tonight? Ok, I get off work at 7.30.'
Dwayne Johnson
Now go back to Supercuts and get your $5 back jabroni!
Dwayne Johnson
I'm gonna stick your head so far up your *ss your gonna have to cut holes in your nipples to see!
Dwayne Johnson
The fans of our industry are extremely savvy. At the end of the day, they understand the business is a work. It's entertainment, nothing more.
Dwayne Johnson
I think that always makes it fun, trying to create a heroic character and putting your own twist on it and injecting your own personality into it.
Dwayne Johnson
There was a time in my life when opportunities were so few and far between they were like little cracks in the wall, and if one opportunity came my way, I would scratch and claw and bite and I would do anything I could to make sure that I grabbed that opportunity by the throat and I did not let it go.
Dwayne Johnson
In business, you take a swing and you hope that you hit a home run, but sometimes you strike out. Strikeouts and failures are important. Being down, getting punched in the gut every once in a while by life and coming back up, that's accomplishment.
Dwayne Johnson
If you're going to make a comedy and if your sole interest is in making people laugh and feel good and entertaining them, then you check your ego at the door.
Dwayne Johnson
I liked his ability to deal with a lot of the negativity that surrounded him. Even though he was in a world that he didn't want to be in, he still saw the bigger picture.
Dwayne Johnson
The wall! Your success is on the other side. Can't jump over it or go around it. You know what to do.
Dwayne Johnson
Wrestling was like stand-up comedy for me.
Dwayne Johnson
I don't worry about overexposure [in work], I think it's important just to go in, and think about quality work and try to put the best movies out.
Dwayne Johnson
I can usually get the right connection with the crowd and I don't have to be jumping off ladders.
Dwayne Johnson
I'm more patriotic than I am political - I appreciate politics but I'm not quite too sure if that's a road I'm willing to go down.
Dwayne Johnson
I had no coaching. I came out of the world of pro wrestling. In that job there are no agents, no publicists, no media training. It's just you and the crowd, and you have to be real to win them over. And if you don't, you're not gonna eat. And that's it.
Dwayne Johnson
The philosophy has always been pretty clean and straightforward, which is that if I see something that I like and I can see it's value to the audience and it's value to me then I'm going to take my shot at it regardless at the genre.
Dwayne Johnson
The goal [of mine] was always to work in as many different genres as I possibly could.
Dwayne Johnson
Michael Cole, The Rock knows that you have never, EVER, had a piece of poontang pie!
