I like to have guns around. I don’t like to carry them.

My movies just kind of sneak up on you. I don’t have to worry too much about what everybody is going to say. Anyway, I really don’t pay attention to what the world says about my movies. I just care about what my buddies think.

Dude, maybe not everyone loves ‚Glee.‘ Me included. I watched 10 minutes and it wasn’t my thing.

There is no such things as ‚best‘ in the world of individuals.

We’ve never advocated violence; violence is inflicted upon us. But we do believe in self-defense for ourselves and for black people.

A lot of people don’t like the road, but it’s as natural to me as breathing.

Frankly, if I could get away with not having to perform, I’d be very happy. It’s not my favorite thing to do.

If you learn a martial art, you learn to be dangerous, but simultaneously, you learn to control it.

I think if someone gets kicked in the face it is their fault – they watched the foot come towards their face.

The voice I use is a very old hardware speech synthesizer made in 1986. I keep it because I have not heard a voice I like better and because I have identified with it.

It was times like these when I thought my father, who hated guns and had never been to any wars, was the bravest man who ever lived.

Every war when it comes, or before it comes, is represented not as a war but as an act of self-defense against a homicidal maniac.

I always tell people that if I move anywhere it would be Toronto.

Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.

The goal of jiu-jitsu in self-defense isn’t to take someone down to the ground – the goal in jiu-jitsu for self-defense is actually to be able to defend yourself on the ground, get up, and get away from an attacker. That’s what the goal is.

It’s a lose-lose situation to get in a confrontation on the street. If you can break contact and get away, break contact and get away. That’s what you should learn self-defense for.

In defense of our persons and properties under actual violation, we took up arms. When that violence shall be removed, when hostilities shall cease on the part of the aggressors, hostilities shall cease on our part also.

This above all, to refuse to be a victim.

I do the dishes every night – other people volunteer, but I like the way I do it.

It’s just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.

In my dreams I hear again the crash of guns, the rattle of musketry, the strange, mournful mutter of the battlefield.

One day a guy tried to rob me on the street, and I had no money. So I charged him.

I have a self-defense mind. I’ve had it all my life.

Men rise from one ambition to another: first, they seek to secure themselves against attack, and then they attack others.

When they set off for their first day at their new school, I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls, just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those big men with guns.

I never got into training to be an All-Ireland boxing champ or to win a belt. At the start, I just got into it to learn how to defend myself when I got into situations.

Even if a snake is not poisonous, it should pretend to be venomous.

While I understand the passions and the anger that arise over the death of Michael Brown, giving into that anger by looting or carrying guns, and even attacking the police, only serves to raise tensions and stir chaos.

I’ve always liked older ladies, ever since my mother would have B’nai B’rith at our house.

Sometimes if you want to get rid of the gun, you have to pick the gun up.

I think we ought to raise the age at which juveniles can have a gun.

I am never proud to participate in violence, yet I know that each of us must care enough for ourselves that we can be ready and able to come to our own defense when and wherever needed.

I do like to have guns around. I don’t like to carry them. But I like – if somebody is going to come into my house and I have not put out the welcome mat, I want to stop them.

People want to tear me down, they were going to knife me anyway.

America… just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns and no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable.

Americans have the right and advantage of being armed – unlike the citizens of other countries whose governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.

I like to walk around with bare feet and I don’t like to comb my hair.

Posture for combat is so vital.

I don’t like celebrities; I don’t hang out with them; I don’t relate to that life.

No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms.

The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation where the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.

The principle of self defense, even involving weapons and bloodshed, has never been condemned, even by Gandhi.

You don’t send people to prison on the basis of what other people imagine, or on the basis of media sound bites like ‚shooting an unarmed child,‘ when that ‚child‘ was beating him bloody.

If someone attacks me, and they want to punch or kick me, I can just run away. They’re not holding onto me. I can get away from them.

The thing about Jiu Jitsu is it is also not for everybody. It can be very humiliating and humbling. If you have a hard time dealing with the fact that someone smaller than you may be able to tap you out, it is going to be difficult.

One loves to possess arms, though they hope never to have occasion for them.

I’m not really a Hollywood person. Not that I don’t like L.A., but I’m just a Northern California guy.

The guns and the bombs, the rockets and the warships, are all symbols of human failure.

I’m personally more struck by visual things more than musical.

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

Wall Street apparently takes and then forgets, and then comes after the guns of law-abiding American citizens and small businesses.

I don’t really like being in the centre of attention.

I just grew the hair on my back. Facial hair just wasn’t appealing to me. I liked it on my back, though.

I’m not a person who defends myself very often. I kind of let my actions speak for me.

Don’t hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Fighting corruption is not just good governance. It’s self-defense. It’s patriotism.

If you have to stand and fight, you train yourself so that you’re able to do it.

My mother was very strong. Once, she picked up a coconut and smashed it against my father’s head. It taught me about women defending themselves and not collapsing in a heap.

Sometimes it’s Tune-berg, sometimes Thunn-berg. I mean, I think it’s funny that everyone pronounces it differently. So, that is just – I don’t mind anyone pronouncing it wrong. There’s no wrong way to pronounce it. Everyone pronounces it in their own way.

Guns are bad, I tell you.

Who wants to leave the door open to being dominated physically by another human being? Jiu Jitsu gives you the ability to not be dominated by that person, and to me, that’s real peace of mind. I don’t have to worry about that when I’m walking around in the world.
