I was playing a part of someone dealing dope on a street corner - and there was a guy actually dealing heroin right there. I looked at him, he looked at me, and I got real confused.
Al Pacino
That's the way to live - around people who care. It may be a tough ride, but something is going to come out of it.
Al Pacino
When I was doing 'Scarface,' I remember being in love at that time. One of the few times in my life. And I was so glad it was at that time. I would come home and she would tell me about her life that day and all her problems and I remember saying to her, look, you really got me through this picture because I would shed everything when I came home.
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 always tell the truth. Even when I lie.

The fruit falls off the tree. You don't shake it off before it's ready to fall.

Vanity: my favorite sin.

The truth is, you know, we need our anodynes. You know that word, anodynes? We need that in life some times. A good warm bath can be one for you, or a whatever.

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
If I find something and feel as though I can contribute to [it] in a way and feel I'm in it, whatever that means, I'm expressing something that I feel is a way to exercise my talent and help communicate a role as a human being in a movie, I will do that.
Al Pacino
Either we heal now, as a team, or we will die as individuals.
Al Pacino
Take a look at Israel's history and you would know who the terrorist is.
Al Pacino
Responsibilities are relative. My responsibility is to a character in a script, to a part I'm playing.
Al Pacino
I've never cared for guns. In fact, when I did 'Scent of a Woman' I had to learn how to assemble one.
Al Pacino
I once asked my oldest daughter [Julia Marie] if she thought about changing her name in school and she said, No, I'm a Pacino. That's my name. I just wondered how it would feel, how people would treat her, but she's adjusted so marvelously.
Al Pacino
The literal, basic thing of the stage is really like a magnet. It brings me back to earth.
Al Pacino
Playing a character is an illusion, and I feel that when you know too much about a person, possibly part of that illusion is disrupted.

Love goes through different stages. But it endures.
Al Pacino
The physical stamina [in Revolution]. I was just shocked by it. I didn't think I had it in me ever, and I wasn't terribly young when I did it. I was in my early forties. That was the first thing I was struck by, not by the acting, not by anything else, but by the physicality.
