More quotes by 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
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
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.
Wesley Snipes
I have some cops in my family. I understand the predicament that they're in. Sometimes they go into it just to pay the bills or because they don't have other choices, or sometimes they just want to get the gun.
Wesley Snipes
Personally I find there is just as much if not more creativity among game makers as there is among feature filmmakers.
Wesley Snipes
I like science fiction and physics, things like that. Planets being sucked into black holes, and the various vortexes that create possibility, and what happens on the other side of the black hole. To me it's the microcosmic study of the macrocosmic universe in man, and that's why I'm attracted to it.
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
My mother was pretty much on my case all the time.
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
I've always been paying my taxes and I've always been trying to comply.
Wesley Snipes
I have a whole other side that has yet to be seen on screen.
Wesley Snipes
I was convicted of three misdemeanors of willful failure to file a form.
Wesley Snipes
Lot of the scripts I've been in with other non-white actors haven't been great. Lot of non-white actors ain't all that great.
Wesley Snipes
We're conditioned in this country to believe that if there's a problem, the black man is usually the culprit.
Wesley Snipes
I come out of repertory theatre so I've been working under pressure my whole career.
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
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
In film you have the script months ahead of time often, for a good film, but in television it seems like you might not get the script until a week or two weeks before you've got to film it. It's a little weird, but also quite challenging. It reminds me of repertory theatre.
Wesley Snipes
I love being a dad, it keeps me fit and inspired and children are so funny. They always supply you with acting material!
Wesley Snipes
The first time I jumped from a plane, I screamed like a woman. I was two miles up and you could hear me clear as day. Now I love it.
