More quotes by Ron Perlman

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 love to continue to challenge myself and put myself in situations that are slightly uncomfortable.
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
You start talking about God and a lot of people are going to become very defensive.
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 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
The great thing about arriving at this age is that I don't even care about my career anymore.
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 kind of one of these guys who wants to play everything once before it's all over.
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 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've never worked with a tail, that I can remember. But there's so much I can't remember.
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
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'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.
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
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.
