More quotes by Jason Statham

It's hard to map out a strategic plan by saying, 'If I do that, that's going to get me to the next level.' I think that's the wrong way to go into movies as an actor. It doesn't happen for me that way.

You only get one shot in your life and you might as well push yourself and try things.

Jason Statham
People take chances every now and then, and you don't want to disappoint them.
Jason Statham
I know, a lot of the films I've done, it's obvious I'm going to beat up six guys and just walk out the door. There's not a lot of motivating factors - it's just action for the sake of action.
Jason Statham
A lot of action movies today seem to have scenes that just lead up to the action.
