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. – Wesley Snipes
Internationally, I have as large of a fan base – if not larger – than I have domestically. – 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
Personally I find there is just as much if not more creativity among game makers as there is among feature filmmakers. – 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 don’t see myself as extremely handsome. I just figure I can charm you into liking me. – Wesley Snipes

Certain roles are more challenging than others, but I haven’t come across one yet that I can’t tackle. – 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 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
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
