As six-time world karate champion and then a movie star, I put too much trust in who I was, what I could do, and what I acquired. I forgot how much I needed others and especially God.

It's amazing because people come up to me and say, 'Chuck, you're the luckiest guy in the world to be a world karate champion and a movie and TV star.' When they say this to me, I kind of smile because luck had nothing to do with it; God had everything to do with it.

I ain't no movie star, man. I'm a booty star.

Trust not too much to appearances.

I wasn't offered a role in 'Expendables 1,' and I'm a guest star in 'Expendables 2.'

I have no self-centeredness or ego about being a movie star.
