Lance Henriksen Quotes

«You know something, if you're not acting, you're not an actor - you've gotta work. No way around it.»
«To me rites of passage through life, that's a wonderful, beautiful thing.»
«When I do a horror or a fantasy film it all boils down to something in the script that surprises me. It could be a big thing or a small moment. If it's there I'll do it.»
«Look, there's an element in acting where they hand you a script, and you know everything there is to know about this character. You know what's going to happen at the end of the movie. That in itself gives you a sense of world-weariness. It's like knowing your own death, every time.»
«The thing I hate most in acting is asking permission to do things. What you really want to do is say, 'This is my need; this is what's going to get me further; this is what's going to be alive. I don't ever say, 'Do you mind if... ?' I just come in and do it.»
«I appreciate the idea that anybody would think of me as a star. But I'm really not career oriented in the sense that I want to be a star. It's not in me. It's not what I do. In fact, I'm amazed that I've even gotten this far.»
«You do your work as fully as you can, and the ones who hear the sound join in.»
«The Aliens and Terminator imitations will eventually fizzle out. But there will always be room for a new phobia. It's the uniqueness of the horror genre that will keep it alive because it's endless.»
«Anybody who writes science fiction is doing a morality play. When dealing with androids [Aliens] , they often involve fulfilling the machines as if they were gods. But what we really find out is that they're really talking about love for each other. Even though its all hidden and becomes - well - mechanical!»
