More quotes by 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
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 think any man would be nervous if his liberty is at stake.
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
A lot of people now don't know I've been on Broadway.
Wesley Snipes
I was never charged with tax evasion. I've never been a tax protester.
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
I don't see myself as extremely handsome. I just figure I can charm you into liking me.
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
Internationally, I have as large of a fan base - if not larger - than I have domestically.
Wesley Snipes
A lot of the cats I grew up with in the South Bronx found themselves in sticky situations.
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 come out of repertory theatre so I've been working under pressure my whole career.
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
I've been a law-abiding citizen ever since I grew up in the Bronx, New York.
Wesley Snipes
I didn't defraud the government by taking money that was not mine.
Wesley Snipes
I like to read about different religions - Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism.
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 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
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.
