When I go on location, we have a schedule. And when you have a schedule, you know when you're not working, so I train very well on location. But I also train three or four times a week at home, but today I train differently than before.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I don't want to be buried in the ground, rotting, with all those worms. What I would love is to have my body dropped where you have those big icebergs and the water is so cold and pure, to be eaten by a polar bear or a seal or an otter.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I don't have a bad relationship. I'm 48 years old. I think life is too short for that. To me, life is... you open the shutters, you see the dogs outside, you look left, you look right, in, what, a second and a half? And that's a life.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
Life is short. I'm years old. I've got years to go where I can be the best I can be. I want those years to be precious, not like before, cranking two or three movies a year. I've made a ton of movies in my life, but so what?
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
Life is short. I'm 47 years old. I've got 10 years to go where I can be the best I can be. I want those 10 years to be precious, not like before, cranking two or three movies a year. I've made a ton of movies in my life, but so what?
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
It's time for me to do things I like so I will be happy, my wife will be happy, my friends will be happy. I just want to do something I'm proud of. It's time for me to change. I could sign with a company for 10 movies and I'm the king of video and so what?
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
But on average, I go to the gym about four or five times a week. Today, I'm so experienced in training - I'm actually listening to my body now. My body needs freedom. When I train I create serenity and I produce oxygen in my blood. It helps me to think better and relax. By training, you accentuate the problem.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
Because no matter what you say in life, the truth will always be the truth. You know when someone is telling the truth, you look in the eyes. I have a tendency to believe people.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
God gave me a great body and it's my duty to take care of my physical temple.

Your body has enough weight for you to be in perfect condition just working against yourself.

Karate's a very boring sport, but when you know the technique you can go further and further.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
Believe me - I've done very good stuff and very crazy stuff, and I don't regret the crazy stuff.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
What is a movie star? It is an illusion. It was everything I ever wanted to be, but it became a kind of shell, non? It was what made me famous and got me women. But it wasn't real.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I came to America with a dream and I made it. The dream became reality. America is built for success.

When you finish a film, if you believed in your character, you're empty.

You can create the perfect triceps by just pushing yourself off your wall.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
You need at least six or seven years to understand the philosophy and concentration of karate to know to clean your spirit of everything and dedicate your mind and body to the sport.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
When I was 24, I was full of life. I was that ham who wanted to be famous, a movie star, all that stuff. I think it's cool. But it was not what I was searching for, really. It was more a delusion.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I'm one of the most sensitive human beings on Earth - and I know it.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
In an action film you act in the action. If it's a dramatic film you act in the drama.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
What really helps a guy to become an action hero today is the directing of the movie. All those fast cuts.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
There are some movie stars in Hollywood that are so scared, they also tell the reporter that they are recording them, in case there is something wrong with what they wrote about them in the papers.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I'm not complaining about doing 20-hour days. It's a joy to be able to work on yet another film.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I'm a big traveler these days. I was in Hong Kong. I live there. I was just in Belgium with my parents and now I'm on my way to North America. You will find me all over.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
My body looks like 30 but my face looks like 50. But I cannot walk bare-chested in the streets. I like to do these movies to challenge myself physically.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
What I promise to my actors, and to my director, is to give them the salary and everything they need.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
The action films I will make in the future will be more believable and character-based. I am now on my second cycle of fame, and I want to make films that smell real and are truthful.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I train, for me, very smartly. I don't train heavy, I do a lot of isometrics.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
It looks good when you see someone kicking at the age of 51 with no double. It's kinda cool for people to know that past 50 we can keep flexible.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I came back to my original wife. I came back to her after I made a few boo-boos in my life. Coming back to her was good for me, good for her and good for the children.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I love challenges. If you don't have any and can do whatever you want, then it's probably time to die.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
A cookie has no soul, it's just a cookie. But before it was milk and eggs. And in eggs there's the potential for life.

If you phone a psychic and she doesn't answer the phone before it rings, hang up.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
Air is beautiful, yet you cannot see it. It's soft, yet you cannot touch it. Air is a little like my brain.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I am fascinated by air. If you remove the air from the sky, all the birds would fall to the ground. And all the planes, too.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
A man may have the best of wealth, cars and fame. But there is nothing more precious in life that he will get than a woman's heart.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
According to statistics, one person out of five is disturbed. If there are four people around you who seem normal, that's not good.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
I've had my ups and downs. My fair share of bumpy roads and heavy winds. That's what made me what I am today.
Quote by -Jean-Claude Van Damme
A pair of legs engineered to defy the laws of physics and a mindset to master the most epic of splits.
