My body looks like 30 but my face looks like 50. But I cannot walk bare-chested in the streets. I like to do these movies to challenge myself physically.

More quotes by 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
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
Take your big stick, and your boyfriend, and go find a bus to catch.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
I'm not a movie star. I'm a brand name. Van Damme is like Levi's. I go on vacation, and everywhere I go, people love me for my name, not for my movies.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
A man may have the best of wealth, cars and fame. But there is nothing more precious in life that he will get than a woman's heart.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
When you finish a film, if you believed in your character, you're empty.
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
If you phone a psychic and she doesn't answer the phone before it rings, hang up.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
You know, I looked at my face in the mirror this morning, and I like being old. My face has more content and when I train in the gym now, I am not training to be strong or handsome - just better than I was yesterday. These days the race is just against myself.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
If you work with a jackhammer during an earthquake, stop, otherwise you are working for nothing.
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
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
It's time for me to do things I like so I will be happy, my wife will be happy, my friends will be happy. I just want to do something I'm proud of. It's time for me to change. I could sign with a company for 10 movies and I'm the king of video and so what?
Jean-Claude Van Damme
A cookie has no soul, it's just a cookie. But before it was milk and eggs. And in eggs there's the potential for life.
Jean-Claude Van Damme
But on average, I go to the gym about four or five times a week. Today, I'm so experienced in training - I'm actually listening to my body now. My body needs freedom. When I train I create serenity and I produce oxygen in my blood. It helps me to think better and relax. By training, you accentuate the problem.
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
In the past, I was working out too heavy.
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
Obviously I've taken drugs.
