Distortions control my self-image, like they do for a lot of us. It's irrational.

More quotes by Ron Perlman
I'm kind of one of these guys who wants to play everything once before it's all over.
Ron Perlman
I like to believe that everyone is born with the same skill set, and that it is the influences that one comes upon. What he hungers for is definitely going to be affected by what he got or didn't get in those years when he was forming his psyche and his values. So I think villains are made.
Ron Perlman
Each character represents a different color on the big palette of what this ultimate painting is going to look like, who your guy is, and just try to be as honest and simple and real as you can possibly be. The outer trappings are incidental - costumes, period, makeup - all of that is rather insignificant at the end of the day.
Ron Perlman
I had an opportunity to be in Frank's [Sinatra] circle, but I couldn't take advantage of it because I couldn't get over how awed I was by him. It was so uncomfortable for me because he meant so much to me, but I just couldn't be myself, so I fled rather than having those great nights hanging out.
Ron Perlman
I, for one, am not nearly as engaged when I'm looking at something that's been completely drawn up on a computer that replaces anything that's in real time and real space. It just engages me all the less, rather than all the more.
Ron Perlman
I'm not religious, but I am spiritual. I have my own relationship with a being that I consider to be everywhere. All and everything. I don't need a church or a synagogue or a mosque. I don't need to kneel down, I don't need to stand up, I don't need to be hanging from a thread.
Ron Perlman
I've never worked with a tail, that I can remember. But there's so much I can't remember.
Ron Perlman
You draw on your own childhood every time you tee it up as an actor.
Ron Perlman
I love to continue to challenge myself and put myself in situations that are slightly uncomfortable.
Ron Perlman
I just think that there are those people that their resolve is strengthened by what it is that's keeping them down, and there are some people that will buckle under it. You never know which one is which until you get into the eighth or ninth round of the fight.
Ron Perlman
A lot of people have been bent one way or the other on that. I'm not going to weigh in on that I'm happy to still be at large, I'll just put it that way.
Ron Perlman
My self-confidence didn't come from my appearance, it came from other things that I did. But certainly not my appearance.
Ron Perlman
The luxury of television is that you get more than one shot at who you think the guy is that you're playing.
Ron Perlman
I'll walk through fire to do what I do because the movie business, when it's right, is the coolest art form ever invented.
Ron Perlman
I like to believe that everyone is born with the same skill set, and that it is the influences that one comes upon.
Ron Perlman
I do voicework all the time.
Ron Perlman
I never direct myself, because I don't like working with me. I would punch me in the mouth if I had to take my direction.
Ron Perlman
None of us are any better than anyone else and none of us are any worse than anyone else, and we're all equal and whatever we can do to celebrate our commonality rather than our differences, which is what religion does, to me... religion just compartmentalizes people and makes everybody into a box.
Ron Perlman
The only way to grab the attention of the audience is originality. We feed ourselves with franchises that's the opposite of what makes our culture multidimensional and interesting.
Ron Perlman
Look at the people who are coming to television Ridley Scott, Ang Lee or Guillermo del Toro - all these great filmmakers - actively put themselves back into TV. That's because the environment is very encouraging for bold storytelling, storytelling that you've never seen before.
Ron Perlman
