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.

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
A lot of people now don't know I've been on Broadway.

Wesley Snipes
There's a lot of great stuff on television and that's very appealing to actors who want to work, who do good quality and high quality work. But you're always concerned that the time demands on television will interrupt or interfere with your film work.
Wesley Snipes
I don't see myself as extremely handsome. I just figure I can charm you into liking me.
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.
