Al Pacino
The actor becomes an emotional athlete. The process is painful - my personal life suffers.
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
When you're reading some of the great plays, when you do what I call taking up with a writer, something happens.
Al Pacino
Great directors can understand the staging in such a way that can make a scene come alive. Others have a certain way of pacing the scene.

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 have a life and do a lot of things, and so far my work has been my life. If I was a painter no one would question me about my age. I'm an artist, I hate saying that.
Al Pacino

Al Pacino
I haven't encouraged [Julia Marie Pacino] or discouraged her. I let her go her own way. I did say to her that I thought that she had a real gift, and it's a good idea to know that. It's always good to go with your gift.

One of the things that made me want to be an actor more than ever was seeing a Chekhov play, The Sea Gull, when was 14 in the Bronx.
Al Pacino
I'm naturally shy but I've done this [movie Salomaybe] so much and you get better at it than you would think.
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.
Al Pacino
The problem with me is, I guess, the way I express myself, you have to be with me 50 years before you can get a sense of what I'm talking about.
Al Pacino
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
The camera can film my face but until it captures my soul, you don't have a movie.
Al Pacino
I do believe, and I will always believe, that Shakespeare on film is really something that should be tried more often because it is an opportunity to take the humanity that Shakespeare writes into characters and express it.
Al Pacino
There are a lot of roles in Shakespeare, basically. If I feel that the script is a movie, I would be interested in doing any role of Shakespeare's.
Al Pacino
It turned out that time doesn't heal the wound , but in its so merciful way , blunts the edges ever so slightly
Al Pacino
I understand the directors much more. I was always rebelling against them when I was a youngster, I didn't want to be told what to do. I had no identification.
