More quotes by 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
I'm proud to be an American. I'm proud to be an African American in America. I've had some interesting experiences: some great, some not so great, but I love it here.
Wesley Snipes
I used to do puppet theatre and also mime and musical theatre in Florida for competitions and festivals, which was great. I was very much involved in theatre when I was in college.
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
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.
Wesley Snipes
Internationally, I have as large of a fan base - if not larger - than I have domestically.
Wesley Snipes
I think that all of us, as Americans, are due due process and have a right to a fair trial, and have a right to be considered innocent until proven guilty. I think that is the American way and it's the foundation upon which this country was built.
Wesley Snipes
I'm not looking at an action movie as something where I just jump around and look beautiful and show my muscles. Since there are so few people that do this and have that pedigree, people disregard their contribution.
Wesley Snipes
I've been trying to keep the private life private. Not being savvy or trained on how to do good interviews like a politician, I thought it was wiser to follow my mother's advice: If you have nothing good to say, don't say anything at all.
Wesley Snipes
I like to read about different religions - Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism.
Wesley Snipes
I had acne late, in college. My skin used to be really flawless. Went to college, became a vegetarian, ate a lot of cheese - big mistake. Here I am trying to be healthy and I'm eating grilled cheese sandwiches and French fries every day, having mad eruptions all over my face.
Wesley Snipes
I think I have kind of a natural magnetism.
Wesley Snipes
I think any man would be nervous if his liberty is at stake.
Wesley Snipes
I don't see myself as extremely handsome. I just figure I can charm you into liking me.
Wesley Snipes
I mainly buy books in my free time.
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
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'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
Personally I find there is just as much if not more creativity among game makers as there is among feature filmmakers.
Wesley Snipes
Not everybody can do the comic book adaptation thing and make it believable. It is challenging.
