More quotes by Ron Perlman
Cinema to me is like a religion. If I was going to have a religion it would be cinema.
Ron Perlman
That's always been Guillermo's preference, is to have as much there practically as is humanly possible, and that digital graphic images are more a punctuation mark than they are a replacement.
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
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
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 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
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
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
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
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, 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 a social rider. Strictly professional.
Ron Perlman
Fearless people are interesting to watch.
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 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've certainly been very blessed with opportunity.
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 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 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.
