The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Frank Dux
- I thought ‘Bloodsport’ was going to ruin my career when it was first cut and put together. It was a horrible film. I mean, they put it on the shelf for two years. It wasn’t until they allowed Jean-Claude to go in and recut the film that everything came together and it worked.
- Ninja is like ‘janitor’ in that it’s just a job title. The misconception is, you don’t actually have to do anything special or know how to do anything special to be a ninja.
- All I’ll say is, Jean-Claude is an OK fighter and a great performer.
- I discovered my own way, my own method, my own style. Nobody had ever seen it before. Nobody understood it.
- When I was growing up, you couldn’t even find ‘martial arts’ in the encyclopedia.
- I became accustomed to great pain and adversity at a very young age because my feet went 180 degrees in the wrong direction. To get them forward, I wore braces that moved them a little bit every day.
- Ian Fleming used to base his characters on real people.
- I sold my sword. I have no regrets for it. It went for a good cause. It went to buy kids out of slavery.
- As a kid, as a young kid, I was a James Bond fan. And I remember watching a movie where James Bond was doing jujitsu. That kind of caught my fancy. I also remember seeing something on ‘Mayberry R.F.D.’ with Andy Griffith, where Barney Fife was getting picked on and so he goes to learn judo.
- I wasn’t a bitter person. I always try to look for the best in people. And a lot of pain, I guess, made me fight. It was just a way to release it. For me, martial arts is just a release. It’s a way for me to just flow. Everywhere else in my life I’m like a duck out of water, but put me in that arena and I just swim.
