Laz Alonso Quotations

I think the biggest lesson that I take from 'Avatar' on any set that I go to is just work ethic. Working with Jim Cameron, you're used to working very, very long days and you're very meticulous about details. He's very, very picky about little details, little character-isms and things.

I'm a big fan of 'Star Wars.' Some of the most iconic characters of 'Star Wars,' we didn't see their faces but to this day you can say Jabba the Hutt or Darth Vader and people know what you mean around the world.

Growing up in D.C. there are so many different types of educational and professional levels. They call D.C. 'Chocolate City' but just because we're all chocolate doesn't mean we're all the same. In D.C., everyone co-exists harmoniously but the lines are still drawn. And people don't really step over those lines.

There is a little bit of me infused in every character I play.

I've been very blessed to work in some films that I'm very proud of.

I'm flattered that women think that I'm sexy.

I believe in my heart that 'Avatar' is going to be the revolutionary sci-fi movie for this generation, in this era.

Eventually one day I want to direct, but as of right now my next cap that I'm looking for is the producer cap.

I'm a martial artist. I've boxed all my life. I work out. I studied Hwarangdo, which is a Korean style.

Being able to travel and see the world really makes me appreciate the blessings in my life. There are so many people that will never get a chance to see some of the things that I've seen during my travels. I'll never take that for granted.
