Like Frank Sinatra, I'm doing it my way.

I'm proud to be an actor. See, as an actor, you live longer. Football players, the brain and all that stuff, ooh-eee, that's not good.

If every man loves his mother, he's going to treat the ladies right, with love and respect.

To be a bodyguard is to be a kamikaze pilot. Dedicated.

I am a tough guy.

Basically, I wear sandals, like Jesus. When it gets cold in Chicago, the snow way up to my knees, I still wear my sandals. But that's me.

If people are cool, then they are not stressed. I pity the fool that don't be cool.

If you look at my job, my union card, it says 'actor.' It don't say nothing about celebrity, movie star, nothing like that, and that's one thing that keeps me humble.

I thank God I'm in a position where I can pick and choose -- there are some roles I don't play.

I take a lot of pride in the work I do, because people pay to see me. They've go to get babysitters, park their car, get popcorn and candy. I've got to be conscious of that.

When I was nine years old, living on the south side of Chicago, my father was a minister and my mother used to scrub floors. I had seven brothers and four sisters. I told my mama, 'One of these days I'm going to be big and strong and buy you a beautiful house.' That's all I've ever wanted to do with my life, is to take care of my mother.

When I'm in the house of God, I don't wear my jewelry, if you're looking for my jewelry. All you see is my heart of gold.

I try to use my experience and the fact that I grew up in the ghetto -- I tell people you don't have to rob or steal to get out of the ghetto.

I used to carry my father's Bible and put it on the pulpit so he could preach.

To have a comeback, you have to have a setback.

WWE asked me to be in the Hall of Fame, and I turned it down. You know why? They put Pete Rose in the wrestling Hall of Fame. This guy can't even get into his own Hall of Fame.

I was one of the wildest Santa Clauses they ever had.

This guy Clubber Lang, I've been him all my life. He's mean and hungry just like me.

I am tough, but deep inside my toughness, I like to let people know I'm an old-fashioned mama's boy.

Hmm, on my downtime, I take a shower or listen to the Bible on tape.
