More quotes by 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
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 lost 90 pounds and my blood pressure went down to a normal level and the salt in my urine disappeared. And that was when I had to make the transition from fat character actor to thin character actor.
Ron Perlman
I was working more on a primal, instinctive level. And it just seemed to suit me it seemed to suit my concentration span, it seemed to suit my personal style of performance, and I have fallen in love with film acting.
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
You start talking about God and a lot of people are going to become very defensive.
Ron Perlman
The great thing about arriving at this age is that I don't even care about my career anymore.
Ron Perlman
I don't ever want to be comfortable with anything I'm doing.
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

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
