More quotes by Ron Perlman
Almost all of your life is lived by the seat of your pants, one unexpected event crashing into another, with no pattern or reason, and then you finally reach a point, around my age, where you spend more time than ever looking back. Why did this happen? Look where that led? You see the shape of things.
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 like to believe that everyone is born with the same skill set, and that it is the influences that one comes upon.
Ron Perlman
It's nice to get paid for therapy rather than having to pay $240 an hour for it.
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'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'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
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 never worked with a tail, that I can remember. But there's so much I can't remember.
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 will not do a role that I don't think I can do, that I'm not interested in, where there's no humanity, that doesn't have any kind of handle for me at all because I know I'll just stink the joint up.
Ron Perlman
I'm not a social rider. Strictly professional.
Ron Perlman
You start talking about God and a lot of people are going to become very defensive.
Ron Perlman
I'm kind of one of these guys who wants to play everything once before it's all over.
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
I've certainly been very blessed with opportunity.
Ron Perlman
I expect that everything I do will be not watched or not seen. That way, I'm never disappointed when I become flooded with that reality.
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
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 think now that I'm in the autumn of my life, and I'm getting a chance of having an overview and looking at the shape of how things happen, when things happen, why things happen, I think it was fitting that I spent most of my early career doing mask work, because I just don't think I was that comfortable in my own skin.
