“My sensei was a British karate champion named Brian Fitkin. He was my ...” — Dolph Lundgren Quote

“My sensei was a British karate champion named Brian Fitkin. He was my mentor and because I had a hard relationship with my dad, he became a father figure to me.”

“When I was a teenager, my dad used to put a lot of pressure on me to be successful, and I'd really beat myself up about things like losing martial arts competitions.”

“I think mortality makes you live a fuller existence. When I was a kid I was scared of death, and maybe that's what made me desperate to get the most out of life.”

“The worst thing my grandfather did, starting from very early on, was just not accept my father for who he is. As soon as he realized that my dad wasn't the 'right kind of person' - he wasn't 'a killer', he wasn't 'tough' - he dismissed him out of hand and quickly found a replacement in Donald.”

“I grew up in a few houses because my dad was a builder, so we used to build and sell quite a lot.”

“My dad's white, my mom's black, and I've struggled with being mixed race.”
