Ving Rhames's quotes
- I must say that some things some men are born to do. I think I was born to kick ass.
- My approach to the work is the same, whether I had the lead or a supporting role. I consider myself a character actor in the true sense of the word. Unless I'm doing my autobiography, I'm playing a character.
- I graduated on a Friday and started working on Monday, doing Shakespeare in the Park with Kevin Kline in Richard III. (On Julliard)
- Since God is the foundation of my life, anything that streams from that can only be positive.
- I was never a struggling actor, for which I feel very blessed.
- The only difference between working on a huge-budget film and a lesser-budget film, is the quality of lunch and dinner.
- I grew up in a poverty-stricken neighborhood, but I didn't really know I was a deprived, poverty-stricken child until the media made me aware of it.
- I don't believe in breakthroughs. Pulp Fiction was just part of the process to get me to where I am now. I would say Rosewood is much more important to me than Pulp Fiction, because it's historical.
- I don't give Hollywood the power to limit me. Only God can limit me.
