More quotes by Al Pacino
When I was a younger actor, I would try to keep it serious all day. But I have found, later on, that the lighter I am about things when I'm going to do a big scene that's dramatic and takes a lot out of you, the better off I am when I come to it.
Al Pacino
Shakespeare's plays are more violent than 'Scarface.'
Al Pacino
One of the things that made me want to be an actor more than ever was seeing a Chekhov play, The Sea Gull, when was 14 in the Bronx.
Al Pacino
I've had very deep relationships that lasted for long periods of time with people - you could almost call them marriages, even though I didn't marry. But it was costly.
Al Pacino
Any project that I find encouraging that isn't attached to a studio, I can go to them, which I definitely would. You have to take an interest in what you do.
Al Pacino
I'm an actor, and everything about me - the way I perceive things, the way I have seen the world - has been in relation to characters and how I would want to play something or not play it.
Al Pacino
I probably write a poem every 50 years.
Al Pacino
Our life is looking forward or looking back, that's it. Where is the moment?
Al Pacino
I'm constantly striving to break through to something new. You try to maintain a neutral approach to your work, and not be too hard on yourself.
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
When [Julia Marie Pacino] was 5 or 6 years old, we were in an Italian restaurant, and these people came by the table and they would start talking to me, asking me for my autograph and she just went under the table.
Al Pacino
I want to be interesting in an interview just as much as I want to do well in a part.
Al Pacino
I personally think if you're given four months instead of four weeks on a play, with the people who want to work that way, the play will invariably be different and stronger, and much more fulfilling and richer on all counts. There's no doubt in my mind about it.
Al Pacino
Sometimes what we imagine and the world aren't different things. Sometimes they are the same exact 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
A lot of acting is private time.
Al Pacino
You never open your mouth until you know what the shot is.
Al Pacino
I've often said there's two kinds of actors. There's a more gregarious type and the shy type.
Al Pacino
[Julie Marie Pacino]is a great ballplayer, which I wanted to be. She did make four films by the time she was 14 but we're not going to talk about that.
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.
