More quotes by Al Pacino
Take a look at Israel's history and you would know who the terrorist is.
Al Pacino
It surprised me, the feeling I got when I won the Oscar for 'Scent of a Woman.' It was a new feeling. I'd never felt it. I don't see my Oscar much now. But when I first got it, there was a feeling for weeks afterward that I guess is akin to winning a gold medal in the Olympics.
Al Pacino
I want to be interesting in an interview just as much as I want to do well in a part.
Al Pacino
When you perform with a live audience, the audience comes back to you, so that you and the audience are giving to each other, in a sense. It's an extraordinary thing. It's wild turf up there.
Al Pacino
Man is a little bit better than his reputation, and a little bit worse
Al Pacino
The actor becomes an emotional athlete. The process is painful - my personal life suffers.
Al Pacino
It's so funny when people who are not used to making movies get into it. You just can't believe how insufferably boring it is. Waiting around and doing these lines over and over and finally having to go in and loop the lines and dub them.

There are a couple of times I would've liked to have married. I think I made a mistake, especially once.
Al Pacino
There is no happiness. There is only concentration.

I was watching Revolution, and the things I did in that picture, holy smokes! I can't believe I did that, it's like another person. It's the thought of it, it's just appalling to me.
Al Pacino
Is it possible to do something that that makes an audience uncomfortable, challenges them, makes them see things they're not used to? Here in these films [Salome the play and Salomaybe], I have the opportunity to say something about how I feel about things.
Al Pacino
I'm much more a European Italian than I am an American Italian, and I've always felt that that style of acting comedy is in me. I put comedy as much as I can into all my movies, if I can help it.
Al Pacino
You'll never be alone if you’ve got a book.
Al Pacino
When you're reading some of the great plays, when you do what I call taking up with a writer, something happens.
Al Pacino
I used to think of myself as a comedian. I've always admired comedians. Their minds, the way in which they se the world is so striking, the way they juxtapose things, the way they can see humor in people. There's a liberation in that.
Al Pacino
Pretty soon I'll start worrying about [my fame] because [my children] carry my name and they have that exposure. The whole thing is, they never asked for it, that kingdom.
Al Pacino
I learned to wrestle, I learned defensive fighting at a young age, because when someone hit me, I would throw up and fall down.
Al Pacino
I always tell the truth. Even when I lie.
Al Pacino
My weaknesses... I wish I could come up with something. I'd probably have the same pause if you asked me what my strengths are. Maybe they're the same thing.
Al Pacino
You never open your mouth until you know what the shot is.
