I used to lift very heavy weights in my mid-twenties - I used to bench press over 300lb. The most I ever lifted was 330lb I couldn't do that today, no way.

More quotes by Eric Bana
I never really think much about the size of a production because I think as an actor, once you're in it, it's all the same. I never ever pick projects based on their size.
Eric Bana
When I was a kid, I would do stupid things on my bike. I'd jump any ramp, I'd jump over people, I'd jump over things - always crashing, never hurting myself badly but always wanting to take physical risks.
Eric Bana
A girl's got to be fun. It's the one bit of advice I always give to friends of mine who are thinking of getting married.
Eric Bana
The movies people don't talk about or remember after six months' time don't really matter.
Eric Bana
I don't consciously seek out Australian projects. I put them on the same table as all the other scripts and I wouldn't ever do a film just because it's been shot at home.
Eric Bana
I think if you had to map that out at the beginning and you said, Right, sit down, this is what you're going to be doing, you'd probably freak out. But I'm someone who really enjoys not being himself. So if you consider that, then it all sort of makes sense.
Eric Bana
I knew a bit but we don't study a lot of British history at school in Australia. We have our own 50-year period to concentrate on.
Eric Bana
I love working with people who have had television experience because I think there's a real efficiency and methodology that comes from that background.
Eric Bana
As an actor I've been attracted to the sort of films that I want to go and see. That tends to usually be drama-related.
Eric Bana
The thing I love about working with first-time directors is that it's always quite shocking how little difference there is between them and directors who've been directing all their lives.
Eric Bana
Definitely the script because you want to be part of an interesting story, you want your character to be a challenge, then comes the director. But essentially it's the script first and whether it's a character that you think you can do.
Eric Bana
I've always described parts as tattoos. For actors our tattoos are in the form of films.
Eric Bana
But it's healthy - whatever you can do to keep you fresh and awake. Acting's such a ridiculous job and sometimes you need to look at it like that to get a sort of degree of freshness.
Eric Bana
There wasn't a moment where I got into cars. It wasn't a conscience decision or something that came later, it was there since I was born. I just love it.
Eric Bana
The notion of people commenting on you, the notion of people saying things about you, people liking or disliking you and getting into your business, has become more of a reality for the general public over the last years, as people have dipped further into Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and social media.
Eric Bana
I think love can come fairly easily and grow - but really liking the core essence of someone is a much harder thing to bottle. If you have both, you're in pretty good shape.
Eric Bana
It's always bitterly disappointing to people to see how normally one can live.
Eric Bana
I think you need to be able to see a lot of negative in things in order to extract material, so there's probably something to that. A lot of the people I used to work with were very, very, very unfunny offstage, so that's a pretty common thing.
Eric Bana
I occasionally go to the gym and I lift free weights, I don't use machines.
Eric Bana
Technically speaking, you can build anything out of sand it doesn't mean you do it.
