I try to update my arsenal constantly. Learning different martial arts since childhood. To understand what's out there. To really be in tune.
I've been learning martial arts since I was 8 years old.
I always loved the idea of learning martial arts, but it wasn't until I was in my 20s that I really started doing it and taking up karate.
I wanted to be a martial arts film star when I was a teenager.
The recipe for great art has always been misery and a good bowel movement.
This is the dialectic - there is a very short distance between high art and trash, and trash that contains an element of craziness is by this very quality nearer to art.
I stepped into the martial arts movie market when I was only 16.
Washington Hogwallop: Mrs. Hogwallop up and R-U-N-N-O-F-T.
Homer Stokes: Those boys desecrated a burning cross!
Homer Stokes: And so, we gonna hang us a negro!
Pete: My pa always said "Never trust a Hogwallop!"

Who art thou? Are you art, or a guy named Art? Doesn’t matter. What does matter is, Are you for sale?
In a sense, the first (if not necessarily the prime) function of a novelist, of ANY artist, is to entertain. If the poem, painting, play or novel does not immediately engage one's surface interest then it has failed. Whatever else it may or may not b...
My mother's a genius. She just kept feeding me art on whatever we had; paper plates, silver platter, didn't matter. You know, she just kept feeding it to me. So we went to see all kinds of theater. We would go to the art museum pretty much every Sund...
In the School of Life events, situations, and the people you have attracted to be part of your personal experiences are synchronized perfectly in order to teach you the lessons that need to be learned. They show you exactly what is needed to be succe...
