More quotes by Wesley Snipes
My mother was pretty much on my case all the time.
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 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
Personally I find there is just as much if not more creativity among game makers as there is among feature filmmakers.
Wesley Snipes
Certain roles are more challenging than others, but I haven't come across one yet that I can't tackle.
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
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 think of myself as a young prince from a long line of royalty.
Wesley Snipes
I have a whole other side that has yet to be seen on screen.
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
I didn't defraud the government by taking money that was not mine.
Wesley Snipes
A lot of people now don't know I've been on Broadway.
Wesley Snipes
I don't see myself as extremely handsome. I just figure I can charm you into liking me.
Wesley Snipes
I come out of repertory theatre so I've been working under pressure my whole career.
Wesley Snipes
Internationally, I have as large of a fan base - if not larger - than I have domestically.
Wesley Snipes
We should be able to go to our government and get clear answers.
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
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 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
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
