Quotes

  • I don't know if Peter Dinklage is still acting or if he is done now but I don't know... it's pretty selfish. People came before him. If it is his mindset that he wants to be the only one then you gotta grow up man.'
  • 'When I grew up, all I wanted to do is be a professional wrestler and work for WWE. When I was 19 years old, they were casting for a leprechaun: a person of my stature to be an on air talent.
  • [on Peter Dinklage] 'When he was cast as a little person role in Lord of the Rings or in a Game of Thrones or in Elf or this that or the other thing... those checks cashed just fine. Now he wants to be progressive? Come on man
  • Peter Dinklage may be the biggest dwarf actor of all time but it doesn't make him King Dwarf.
  • [on Peter Dinklage] 'It makes me so sick to my stomach to think that there are seven roles for dwarfs that can't get normal acting roles, or very few and far between roles, and now they are gone because of this guy.
