More quotes by Al Pacino
To be or not to be is [by William Shakespeare] beyond anything I can comprehend. I understand it on a superficial level, but the depth of it just boggles my mind. I think it's probably the greatest of all speeches ever written.

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
I always had this thing, when I was younger especially, I didn't want to do movies that much. I found they took a lot out of you and they were exhausting for me in a lot of ways.
Al Pacino
[Marlon] Brando's a giant on every level. When he acts it's as if he landed from another planet. A planet where they produce great actors.
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
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
If you have the opportunity to meet someone as an actor, it's just great fodder for you. It's wonderful source stuff that we die for.

I don’t understand the hatred and fear of gays and bisexuals and lesbians… it’s a concept I honestly cannot grasp. To me, it’s not who you love… a man, a woman, what have you… it’s the fact that you love. That is all that truly matters.
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
I'm constantly striving to break through to something new. You try to maintain a neutral approach to your work, and not be too hard on yourself.
Al Pacino
I wanted to be a baseball player, naturally, but I wasn't good enough. I didn't know what I was going to do with my life. I just had a kind of energy, I was a fairly happy kid.
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
I went to Performing Arts because that was the only school that would accept me. My scholastic level was not very high.
Al Pacino
Acting is hard work. At times, it's very energizing and enervating. It's childish. It's also responsible. It's illuminating, enriching, joyful, drab. It's bizarre, diabolical. It's exciting.
Al Pacino
If something is working, don't fix it. Keep going. Go with the glow.
Al Pacino
I' ve won awards. And they didn't make me feel bad winning them. They made me feel pretty good. But it also did not make me feel bad NOT winning the Academy Award.

I think what you see [in Salome the play backstage] is an artist having this fit of temperament.
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 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
Either we heal now, as a team, or we will die as individuals.
