More quotes by Wesley Snipes
I've reduced a lot of the stress in my life. I've gotten rid of a lot of things. The light was turned on and a lot of the cockroaches started spinning. I swept them out the door. And sometimes you just have to throw things out because they carry a certain energy.
Wesley Snipes
I didn't go into this business to do action because I'm a classically trained actor. But I'm good at kicking and punching.
Wesley Snipes
There is a bit of arrogance with 'Hollywood' types that doesn't sit well with game developers.
Wesley Snipes
Nobody wants to get locked up, although 'locked up' is a matter of perspective. There can be people who are out who are in prison mentally and emotionally and worse off than those who are behind bars.
Wesley Snipes
In the beginning, all I wanted to do was to be a singer and a dancer. That was my real groove, my real interest. When it came to doing films, my biggest goal was to do a commercial.
Wesley Snipes
I was very short when I was little, so I probably had - and there may be a residue of it now - that Napoleon complex. Wanting to be as big and as powerful as the big guys.
Wesley Snipes
There are so few guys who do action and do it well. Even fewer who are African-American. Even fewer who have classical-theater training. So a cat like me coming in, I'm bringing all of that to an action movie.
Wesley Snipes
I had faith in the concept and the theory that all Americans are endowed with the right to a fair trial and I would be fairly judged and fairly tried.
Wesley Snipes
I never really planned on making action films. It just kind of happened.
Wesley Snipes
I've come to the conclusion that beautiful women in the West aren't comfortable finding strength in their femininity. They want to do masculine-oriented things to establish their femininity. It's a contradiction.
Wesley Snipes
If a woman decides she likes me, it would behoove her to take into consideration that my art has had a strong influence on the type of person I am.
Wesley Snipes
I didn't defraud the government by taking money that was not mine.
Wesley Snipes
Well, I'm an artist to the core. And my objective has always been to use my talents and my skills to elevate humanity through my art.
Wesley Snipes
My sign is Leo. A Leo has to walk with pride. When he takes a step, he has to put his foot down. You walk into a room and you want people to know your presence, without you doing anything.
Wesley Snipes
I mainly buy books in my free time.
Wesley Snipes
People wanted to move to America because of Michael Jackson. Industry changed, the music industry changed, because of Michael Jackson. That's a gift to us, and, you know, I am concerned that the Good Lord may not send another one because we did not take good care of him.
Wesley Snipes
So: see ya, and I wouldn't wanna be ya.
Wesley Snipes
I have a whole other side that has yet to be seen on screen.
Wesley Snipes
I don't like perpetuating the stereotype of black males being drug dealers, and criminals.
Wesley Snipes
No one can train you to be famous. How do you deal with the loss of anonymity, the loss of privacy? You have to be disciplined.
