Zitat des Tages von Til Schweiger:
I just fooled around in front of the camera and earned money for it. Every policeman, every soldier, every nurse - they all do more for society. I just rent my face.
I hate sitting around and waiting; that's why I always have an editing suite on set.
I lived in L.A. for seven years, and if you're a German actor, they always throw the Nazi parts at you.
I don't think German films have to be heavy or intellectual the way they sometimes used to be.
Germans aren't action fans. The only kind of action that really works is 'Bond.'
We haven't done action movies in Germany. We had some attempts in the '90s, but they failed.
I don't understand why Germans are openly demonstrating against Islamization and radicalization but don't help the people who flee from such horrors.
I knew some people at my school who were squatters, and my younger brother was a squatter. I knew those guys: those were the people who said the Russians were the good guys and the Americans were bad. But I was the guy who went to the disco.
We want to build a flagship refugee home. And I'm going to establish a charity for traumatized children.
I'm going to build a refugee home together with friends.
I'm happy when my name's not in the paper.
It was a shock for me to see that there are obviously more people in Germany with fascist opinions than I thought there would be.
Maybe the first secret is, 'Don't bore people.'
I don't want to be the only one speaking up for the refugees. I get all these comments from people saying, 'Thanks so much for your courage,' and, 'You're the only one who's spoken out.' But I don't want to be the only one speaking up.
I'm the most successful filmmaker in the country; what do I need PR for?
Action alone doesn't work in Germany - you need an emotional element to the story.
