The actor becomes an emotional athlete.
Al Pacino
To be really obvious about something, if somebody straps an M1 on your shoulder and throws you in Iraq, you're going to get a sense of what the hell's going on there. Boy, you'll wake up fast when bullets are flying over your head.
Al Pacino
Francis Ford Coppola did this early on. You tape a movie, like a radio show, and you have the narrator read all the stage directions. And then you go back like a few days later and then you listen to the movie. And it sort of plays in your mind like a film, like a first rough cut of a movie.
Al Pacino
It used to worry me what people said about me. I'm learning not to worry as much. Sometimes you feel critics are wrong all the time, but I don 't take objection to it, because that's the way it goes. They can be wrong, they can be right. They can be cruel, they can be kind.
Al Pacino
There are many things my father taught me here in this room. He taught me: keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.

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
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.
Al Pacino
After looking at Salomaybe, I don't know who the hell the real me is. I think it's closest now to the real me because for one thing, I'm used to this.
Al Pacino
My first language was shy. It's only by having been thrust into the limelight that I have learned to cope with my shyness.
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
sometimes it's better to be with the devil u know than the angel u didn't know
Al Pacino
There has been a lot of self-doubt and unwelcome events in my life.
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
You take a guy like George Clooney who goes out there to Darfur, and gets things done! That's magical. He's done a great thing.
Al Pacino
A kiss is a lusty dollop of dessert to be served with desire and savored with passion.
Al Pacino
I am more alive in the theater than anywhere else, but what I take into the theater I get from the streets.
Al Pacino
All due respect and trying to be as modest as I can be, I am a dancer. But I don't think I would be on 'Dancing with the Stars,' mainly because I would be too shy.
Al Pacino
The reasons you have for doing a movie will vary with the way your life is going. There was a time when a made a some movies because I felt I needed to work. And I didn't think about the material as much. But sometimes I've thought about the material a lot and thought I was doing the right thing, and it didn't work out.
Al Pacino
It's not personal, it's strictly business
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
