More quotes by 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
You don't get to know anybody in a movie until after it's over. You work less together in a film than you do onstage.
Al Pacino
Responsibilities are relative. My responsibility is to a character in a script, to a part I'm playing.
Al Pacino
There are people whose sense of reality is very strong, who have a sense of honesty. Lee Strasberg is like that, my grandfather was like that. These are the kinds of men I've had close relationships with.
Al Pacino
I love work because it keeps sex in perspective. Otherwise, it can become a preoccupation.
Al Pacino
The difference between the actor and the painter is that the actor would buy somebody a knish in order to have them watch him act.
Al Pacino
There has been a lot of self-doubt and unwelcome events in my life.
Al Pacino

Al Pacino
I'm not a violent person, never was, but I have this temperament that I've always displayed. I guess it has to do with my tradition and being Italian, we're very outgoing with our emotions.
Al Pacino
All due respect, and trying to be as modest as I can be: I am a dancer.
Al Pacino
I've often said there's two kinds of actors. There's a more gregarious type and the shy type.
Al Pacino
The fruit falls off the tree. You don't shake it off before it's ready to fall.
Al Pacino
The hardest thing about being famous is that people are always nice to you. You're in a conversation and everybody's agreeing with what you're saying - even if you say something totally crazy. You need people who can tell you what you don't want to hear.
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
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 went to Performing Arts because that was the only school that would accept me. My scholastic level was not very high.
Al Pacino
Did you know I started out as a stand-up comic? People don't believe me when I tell them. That's how I saw myself, in comedy.
Al Pacino
Larry Grobel has the illness of all writers, he can't help himself. You're talking to him and all of a sudden, you say, He's puttin' that in his cash register!
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.
