Personal Quotes (17)
[on losing work because of his aggressive style] I’ve lost plenty of work because women are afraid to work with me. I’d be better off with a little eight-inch prong.
To perform you have to make your own fantasies. The nastiest taboos you can think of will usually work best. I had this stepsister and she used to get strange and I wanted her. And my brother’s girlfriend.
I tell people not to get into this business. Relationships don’t work. If you think this business is all glamor, you’re wrong. It can mess with your head. If you want to do it, only use this business as a last resort before working at McDonalds.
Some people get scared when I look at them. If someone is staring at me, I’m going to stare back at them.
[on the exotic women he finds all over the world to put in his movies] I love women, especially ethnic women, so I frequently go to places no one else will travel to, from Colombia to Cuba and all parts of South America and Europe.
I make sure to include all types of beautiful women in all my movies, especially hot, new girls that love interracial sex. I look for the best bodies, hottest sexual performers, women that turn me on.
[on having his own porn line and being in control of the films he makes] This is what I wanted to do my whole life. I love this business and for all those people who have had fun at my expense, all I can say is who is laughing now?
[about his brief “career” as a stuntman in Hollywood films] I can ride motorcycles or race cars, but you’ve gotta start from the bottom as an extra. You have to kiss the stunt coordinator’s ass and work your way up. I just finished a six-week stuntman course where they show you the basics: falling, fighting, jumping out of a three-story building onto an air mat. They teach you different types of jumps and how to break through glass windows without getting hurt.
I’ve got some good friends like Jon Dough, Peter North, Steve Hatcher . . . I’m not close with that many people. I’m not a Captain Friendly. I’m not a bullshit artist.
Many people think porno people are so bad and that professionals are so good. And most professional people that I’ve met are pieces of shit. They’re child molesters, fake, bullshit people. That bothers me. Everyone watches porn and then looks down on it.
[on how he views himself] Hard-working, with a bad temper, and strong. Rude, disrespectful, ignorant people piss me off.
[on the four firearms he owns] I don’t shoot them that often, a few times a year. I like guns. I like to blow things up. I go out in the desert and blow everything up – dynamite, gas cans, shoot at road runners . . .
I perform in maybe 15 sex scenes a month on film and if I don’t get my dosage of pussy daily, I get crazy. The chemicals start boiling inside me!
I don’t think there are very many men that can compete with me sexually in a scene. It’s a little bit of genetics, it’s in my blood and it’s all about the mind, the concentration.
[on getting into directing] Devil’s Films said to me one day that I should start making movies for them. Performing for me was almost too easy. After coming from a very hard place growing up it wasn’t something I necessarily wanted to do, because of my upbringing. Then they talked to me about shooting black girls and that seemed interesting. They convinced me to try it and it’s graduated to a frenzy.
My mind is very powerful. It got me through some of the more difficult sex scenes.
[on hiring women for his films] I rarely use a girl twice. It used to be a big challenge because not that many pretty black girls were working. It was more like a hunt. Now there’s a lot of girls coming through.
