More quotes by Al Pacino
Either we heal now, as a team, or we will die as individuals.
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
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
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
Love goes through different stages. But it endures.
Al Pacino
Show me a bad script and I will show you a big payday.
Al Pacino
The camera can film my face but until it captures my soul, you don't have a movie.
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
Sometimes you're fighting corporations and forget that people can talk to each other.
Al Pacino
I'm always on a red carpet . . . the other day I thought, this ain't bad. You can meet people on it.
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
The actor becomes an emotional athlete. The process is painful - my personal life suffers.
Al Pacino
The only thing in this world that gives orders is balls.
Al Pacino
Freedom, baby, is never having to say youre sorry.
Al Pacino
I wouldn't be interested in [nowadays] television simply because I think it goes too fast. Except if something was maybe a play on television or some great television script.
Al Pacino
Vanity is my favourite sin.
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
I hope the perception is that I'm an actor, I never intended to be a movie star.
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
My dad was in the army. World War II. He got his college education from the army. After World War II he became an insurance salesman. Really, I didn't know my dad very well. He and my mother split up after the war. I was raised by my maternal grandmother and grandfather, and by my mother.
