Filmmaking is such a collaborative piece of art that you can't look to one person - you couldn't look to me, you couldn't say, 'Because Vin's in it, it's this or that...' It's really all of us coming together for that period of time to try and make magic.

If you're the type of person who has to fulfill your dreams, you've gotta be resourceful to make sure you can do it. I came out to California when I was 21, thinking my New York credentials would take me all the way. I came back home a year later all dejected and a failure.

The only way anyone knows which girl I'm with is if a one-night stand goes on 'Howard Stern.'
Vin Diesel

I started acting when I was seven-years-old. By the time I was 17 I would say: If I'm not a star by the time I'm 18, I'll get out of the business.
