More quotes by Andy Garcia
I pray for what I have always prayed for: the restoration of our constitution and absolute freedom for the people of Cuba. That dream is very much alive, that fight is very much alive.
Andy Garcia
Becoming a producer enables you to empower yourself, to make the film that you want to make. I have desires to make movies - I have movies I'm developing, and things that I'm interested in.
Andy Garcia
My first interest was always music, and somehow that channelled itself into films and acting. I don't know what the natural transition of it was. I mean I acted a little bit when I was young and like any kid would in a community theatre.
Andy Garcia
The promises of Fidel Castro's so-called revolution of pluralism and democracy, were and continue to be a false promise and a betrayal of all basic human rights.
Andy Garcia
They say a lot of women would like to see me naked, but there's not a lens long enough for that.
Andy Garcia
She is Cuba. If you want to love her, you have to be with her, but you can't be with her in her current state. It's the point of view of all exiles - you have to leave the thing you cherish most.
Andy Garcia
I go where I'm stimulated. If I'm stimulated, I show up. As Mick Jagger sings: It's my life and I'll do what I want.
Andy Garcia
I listen to and I play all kinds of music, and I'm interested in jazz and in bluegrass - I like it all - but Cuban music speaks to me in a certain way.
Andy Garcia
It's better not to work than to work in something you don't want to be working in.
Andy Garcia
I think it's most important for children to understand the concept of respect and manners and also work ethic. I have a responsibility to those who came before me.
Andy Garcia
Children make you a better everything. Daughters open up a whole different sensibility to you. When you have children, it focuses you on them as opposed to on yourself.
Andy Garcia
If you have the right actors and you can give them the freedom to explore, you've done a lot of your work as a director.
Andy Garcia
My uncle, who was a little more flamboyant, always said the guy who dressed the best was Fred Astaire.
Andy Garcia
I'm a staunch anti-Castro individual.
Andy Garcia
I don't control the movies that are offered to me, but I make choices based on certain parameters.
Andy Garcia
Movies are very hard to make, to get it all to come together. So many people have their say in what the end product of films are.
Andy Garcia
Children need parameters, know what's right or wrong.
Andy Garcia
I'm not the type of person who goes through all this effort for a movie, and then doesn't care if anybody sees it. I want them to see it, and I want them to see it on the big screen.
Andy Garcia
It's important, when going after a goal, to never lose sight of the integrity of the journey.
Andy Garcia
I'm not trying to convince anybody of anything. I just want (the audience) to have an experience that moves them.
