More quotes by Al Pacino

Al Pacino

[Ocean's Thirteen] is a great group, and it was an opportunity to work with Steven Soderbergh. But mainly? It was shot in L.A. and I want to be next to my kids. So I've been doing everything that has to do with being next to them, close to them.

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
I was never very happy with performing it didn't turn me on much.
Al Pacino

[Julie Marie Pacino]is a great ballplayer, which I wanted to be. She did make four films by the time she was 14 but we're not going to talk about that.
Al Pacino
I hope the perception is that I'm an actor, I never intended to be a movie star.
Al Pacino
My grandfather was a provider. Work, any kind of work, was the joy of his life. So I grew up having a certain relationship to work. It was something that I always wanted.
Al Pacino
We live in a world where the more you're working, the more things you do. It's a workaday world.
Al Pacino
My best advice to any young person is, if you want kids, be careful who you have them with. That's my mantra.
