More quotes by 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
I've always wanted to have my own studio because this is a way for me to finally take all things that I've always dreamt about and actually put them into action.
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've done millions of mediocre movies. I've done way more than my fair share. You do what you gotta do. This is not heart surgery. I'm not curing cancer. I'm just trying to put my kids through school.
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
I love showing up and giving a performance without the benefit of a lot of rehearsal or dissection. It's fun to me to act on a kind of instinctual level and go straight for the performance.
Ron Perlman
I love to continue to challenge myself and put myself in situations that are slightly uncomfortable.
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
I'm just trying to make up for lost times, and I have total awareness that when the work is coming it doesn't mean it's going to continue to come, so I'm taking advantage of this phenomenal period that I'm in now, to its fullest.
Ron Perlman
Cinema to me is like a religion. If I was going to have a religion it would be cinema.
Ron Perlman
Distortions control my self-image, like they do for a lot of us. It's irrational.
Ron Perlman
I don't ever want to be comfortable with anything I'm doing.
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
You start talking about God and a lot of people are going to become very defensive.
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
The great thing about arriving at this age is that I don't even care about my career anymore.
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 do voicework all the time.
Ron Perlman
I've certainly been very blessed with opportunity.
Ron Perlman
I'm fully aware that things that resonate and become real hits are the exception to the rule, so much so that I've wired myself for failure.
