We live in a country where John Lennon takes eight bullets, Yoko Ono is walking right beside him and not one hits her. Explain that to me! (Agre Peter)
What, like I want to look like Dick Clark? No. I think I look great with liver spots (Agre Peter)
About three years later, the project went back up, and I got a callback. I walked into the room and Denzel Washington was there. I couldn't really look at him because I admired him so much. So we read, and I got another callback, number five. (Agre Peter)
Denzel Washington invoked confidence. When you have confidence, you can do anything. And that's what happened. I learned about being honest and keeping it true, keeping it true in my performance. (Agre Peter)

Denzel's quality, I think, is his faith. You have all the action in your head and you have to believe in it and just do it. That's what he does and that's what he taught me to do. (Agre Peter)
He's looking for the president's kidnapped daughter; everybody he calls on to help him is busy, but lo and behold, you look across the room, and I'm waiting for that action. (Agre Peter)
Jason Schwartzman who's hysterical and very talented - kept us laughing all day. (Agre Peter)
Sometimes I get mistaken for Leonardo DiCaprio. (Agre Peter)
I wouldn't refuse stardom, recognition, acclaim. I had no axe to grind either way... I wasn't wishing I was somewhere else, somebody else, richer or more famous. I was happy and secure with who I was, what I was and where I was. I didn't have to have what they all had. (Agre Peter)
I wanted to be Anthony Hopkins and ended up being neither a film star nor having a career on the stage. (Agre Peter)
Harrison Ford was pretty content as a carpenter who thought it would be nice to work on TV and ended up being the biggest film star in the history of cinema. (Agre Peter)
For years, I looked to Bruce Lee as a mentor as being a Chinese and Asian man living in this country. (Agre Peter)
Francis Ford Coppola and the film company he formed with Wayne Wang called Clone Dragon approached me. The objective of the company is to recruit Asian talent and using these talents to produce low budget films. (Agre Peter)
I'd noticed that Sammo Hung's films had such large budgets they always had money for props, guys falling from two-story buildings, etc. (Agre Peter)
When I look at my fellow men like Jackie (Chan). I wouldn't put myself in that category. He's already way beyond that stage. (Agre Peter)
Keyhoe's stock dropped. He was made to look like a liar on television. Thanks to the Freedon of Information Act - the documents have been obtained. (Agre Peter)
They really do identify with Barclay because he has difficulties. He's not the super perfect Starfleet Officer you often see in Star Trek and the audiences loves him because of that. (Agre Peter)
The first willing concert I went to was Aerosmith when I was like 14. (Agre Peter)
Sylvester Stallone is very funny and he's a great guy to hang out with. (Agre Peter)
Guilt is the most meaningless of emotions. It means nothing. As Barbra Streisand says, 'I got nothing to be guilty of... .' (Agre Peter)
I don't feel good about taking the platform, merely on account of my celebrity. I believe that the people I support are in a position to make a better argument for the cause, based on facts and their expertise, than I am on the authority of my celebrity. (Agre Peter)
I can't decide between (UN Secretary-General) KOFI ANNAN and BRAD PITT. (Agre Peter)
I had a huge crush on Olga Korbut, the gymnast. The only other person was Cliff Richard, which is embarrassing - it means that when I was seven I had bad taste and was presumably gay. (Agre Peter)

But when you're a celebrity, you discover that you're no longer the pursuer, but the one being pursued. That's one of the disappointments I have had since becoming a single man. (Agre Peter)
