More quotes by Jean-Claude Van Damme
When you finish a film, if you believed in your character, you're empty.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
Because no matter what you say in life, the truth will always be the truth. You know when someone is telling the truth, you look in the eyes. I have a tendency to believe people.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
I'm a big traveler these days. I was in Hong Kong. I live there. I was just in Belgium with my parents and now I'm on my way to North America. You will find me all over.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
I really am a guy who can be black and white. I don't understand, too much, the gray. And truly I can go from one type of character to another type of character.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
I love challenges. If you don't have any and can do whatever you want, then it's probably time to die.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
When I was 24, I was full of life. I was that ham who wanted to be famous, a movie star, all that stuff. I think it's cool. But it was not what I was searching for, really. It was more a delusion.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
If you phone a psychic and she doesn't answer the phone before it rings, hang up.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
When I go on location, we have a schedule. And when you have a schedule, you know when you're not working, so I train very well on location. But I also train three or four times a week at home, but today I train differently than before.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
I love karate, it's like a bible to me. But deep inside I'm so I mean, I'm so sensitive.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
Everybody understands a slap in the face. In Japan, Belgium, or America, a punch is a punch. Comedy will be different in Europe or America or Japan, so my movies are very international.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
In an action film you act in the action. If it's a dramatic film you act in the drama.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
Karate's a very boring sport, but when you know the technique you can go further and further.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
What really helps a guy to become an action hero today is the directing of the movie. All those fast cuts.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
What I promise to my actors, and to my director, is to give them the salary and everything they need.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
A pair of legs engineered to defy the laws of physics and a mindset to master the most epic of splits.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
You have to believe what you say, and if you believe what you are saying, then acting is easy.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
What is a movie star? It is an illusion. It was everything I ever wanted to be, but it became a kind of shell, non? It was what made me famous and got me women. But it wasn't real.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
My last fight was more than 20 years ago. I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover. If somebody's going to speak bad about me, I will walk away. But if a guy like Steven Seagal slaps me once, I will slap him twice as hard. Life is full of violence.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
I've had my ups and downs. My fair share of bumpy roads and heavy winds. That's what made me what I am today.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
I am the Fred Astaire of karate.
