More quotes by Mickey Rourke
It's always been the case that you have the really rich, and the really poor. But hey, look, all the great empires have their periods where they rule the world, and then they crumble.
Mickey Rourke
Boxers are very isolated - or isolated within their own camps.
Mickey Rourke
People ask me about that all the time. They say, Did you ever think of directing? And I say, It's completely out of the question.
Mickey Rourke

Mickey Rourke
[The tension] between the Christians and Muslims goes back to the Crusades, doesn't it? It's too easy to blame everything on one guy. These are unpredictable, dangerous times, and I don't think that anyone really knows quite what to do.

Mickey Rourke
A couple of guys won Academy Awards for the things that I turned down. Today, after coming to terms with everything, after being in therapy for a long time-there are areas where I will compromise.
Mickey Rourke
I don't mind getting punched in the nose by a guy standing in front of me. It's getting stabbed in the back that I can't handle.
Mickey Rourke
Hey, baby, nobody suffers like the poor.
Mickey Rourke
Acting was never my first choice as a profession, but I came to terms with it when I decided I better buckle down and be the best I can be at it.
Mickey Rourke
I did think for many, many years that because of my ability I could beat the system. And I was wrong.
Mickey Rourke
Julian Schnabel painted a picture that he dedicated to my character in Rumble Fish. It was called The Motorcycle Boy. I remember when he brought it over to me at the Mayflower Hotel [in New York] years ago. This is when you and I knew each other.
Mickey Rourke
I have so many boxing gloves around my house that I would get them confused with other gloves.
Mickey Rourke
I think the first year and a half that I was in New York I was having trouble just living somewhere. Back in them days the city was a lot different than it is now.
Mickey Rourke
I never look backwards. I have always been an athlete. I boxed before I acted.
