Steven Seagal

I love Russia. Some people love Africa, some people love Mexico, some people love purple, the color purple. I love Russia, and I'm not scared to say it.

My people are my people. They love me and I love them. I would not be here without them.

I love getting out on the streets and helping people.

The secret is not to act, but to be.

The most important seed I can sow in this life is my children, and the love and knowledge that I can bestow upon them and the help I can give them.

I think the more diversity that one has in his life, the happier he can be, as long as he is able to do whatever he chooses to do at that given time well.

For a while, I had this uncontrollable urge - this addiction to danger. Now I look back and I think, 'Gee, what an idiot. I was risking my life just for the sensation of it.'

I have no fear of death. More important, I don't fear life.

I think we're living in a world where society is very difficult.

I would only ever be involved in a reality show that was about real life and had lots of action.

Action films are great, but an action film that has characters that are compelling and a story that people can care about is something even better. We love to see action heroes that are vulnerable, that are sensitive, that are family people, that are accessible.

My CIA godfather told me he'd never heard any American speak Japanese so well.
