More quotes by Alec Baldwin
Most women in leading roles are very boyish looking. The one girl working right now who I think is a real beauty in a classic sense - the only real 12-cylinder engine - is Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Alec Baldwin
I think I do want to go into politics. I really, really do. And I don't know if I will.
Alec Baldwin
If Obama was white, he’d be up by 17 points.
Alec Baldwin
I don't want to be throwing the football on the front yard when I'm 75. I mean, I'm not opposed to men doing that. But I don't think it's gonna work for me.
Alec Baldwin
For better or ill, I was very heavily influenced by men I knew who always dressed formally.
Alec Baldwin
Rolling torture wagons for nature's most dignified creature.

Success begets success. I've been offered a lot of movies now that '30 Rock' has been successful.
Alec Baldwin
In the theater, you act more of the time. In the movies, you get to act maybe 20 or 30 minutes of the day. I love acting in movies. It's just different.
Alec Baldwin
When you're with someone, you want everything to be great. And that's the pressure that you put on, and what you just can't do.
Alec Baldwin
Every time we sit down to eat, we make a choice. Please choose vegetarianism. Do it for animals. Do it for the environment and do it for your health.
Alec Baldwin
One of the truest things to commit to is your own nature.
Alec Baldwin
Great acting can be almost a psychotic mix of self-consciousness and unself-consciousness. And thats the terrible conflict. You have to be free to jump off into that volcano and you have to be pathologically self-conscious.
Alec Baldwin
If I add a negative element to the piece, you are not a villain necessarily but you bring a stronger, more negative aspect to the film, and if you don't do that, the film goes off balance where you can't worry about likability, you have to come in and play the part the best way that you can.
Alec Baldwin
I don't think I really have a talent for movie acting.
Alec Baldwin
Books make great gifts because you don't have to plug them in.
Alec Baldwin
There's three things: there's masculinity, there's intelligence, there's sensitivity. You've got to bring those three things to a leading man's role: masculinity, sensitivity, intelligence. In some people, there's a little too much in the mix of one or the other.
Alec Baldwin
New York City is a mismanaged carnival of stupidity that is desperate for revenue and anxious to criminalize behavior once thought benign.
Alec Baldwin
We both grew into the people we wanted each other to be.
Alec Baldwin
Denzel Washington's career is an enormous luxury. Compare him to Wesley Snipes.
Alec Baldwin
My life, in some ways, has been a half-measure. I didn't commit myself all the way to my marriage and family, because I would have given up more. And I didn't go all the way with just being completely selfish. I always wonder where my career would be if I was more selfish.
