More quotes by Al Pacino
I don't like a lot of things like [Iraq], I never did. Being in a position of celebrity and having your words carry such unnatural weight...I've always been a bit squeamish when it came to that kind of thing.
Al Pacino
I’ve always been in the theater. I’ve always gone to it. That’s been my way to cope. Early on in my career, I remember running - fleeing - to the theater as a way of coping with all the meshugaas that was going on for me.
Al Pacino
An actor basically likes to be asked to do something, no matter what position he's in. It feels more natural. Sitting and waiting is more gratifying.
Al Pacino
Being the actors of the craft, the trade, one of the big things you do and you learn is about repeating. There is something to the repeats. I think that is part of what is healthy to young actors. Get out and learn something just through doing that, repeating.
Al Pacino
I would say I am more concerned with the plays I'm going to do than the movies. I'm more comfortable in a play. In film, there's always a certain sense of control, of holding back. The stage is different there's more to act. There are more demands put on you, more experiences to go through.
Al Pacino
The literal, basic thing of the stage is really like a magnet. It brings me back to earth.
Al Pacino
I didn't go for the needle at all. I never cared for drugs, because I saw what they did to most people. I thought that was the end of the road.
Al Pacino
Forget the career, do the work. If you feel what you are doing is on line and you're going someplace and you have a vision and you stay with it, eventually things will happen.
Al Pacino
I was never very happy with performing it didn't turn me on much.
Al Pacino
I don't talk politics and I don't talk philosophy or anything like that, but if you look at my work, you might get an expression of me as a person.
Al Pacino
Love goes through different stages. But it endures.
Al Pacino
I come from the South Bronx - a true descendant of the melting pot. I grew up in a really mixed neighborhood it was a very integrated life.
Al Pacino
I want to be interesting in an interview just as much as I want to do well in a part.
Al Pacino
That's where humour lives for me. In the body. The Steve Martin kind of stuff or Jim Carrey, that's what I like. I've always felt that's what I would like to do.
Al Pacino
I don't regret anything. I feel like I've made what I would call mistakes. I picked the wrong movie, or I didn't pursue a character, but everything you do is part of you and you get something from it.
Al Pacino
If something is working, don't fix it. Keep going. Go with the glow.
Al Pacino
You take a guy like George Clooney who goes out there to Darfur, and gets things done! That's magical. He's done a great thing.
Al Pacino
I'm naturally shy but I've done this [movie Salomaybe] so much and you get better at it than you would think.
Al Pacino
I'm an actor, not a star. Stars are people who live in Hollywood and have heart-shaped swimming pools.
Al Pacino
[Marlon] Brando's a giant on every level. When he acts it's as if he landed from another planet. A planet where they produce great actors.
