More quotes by Anthony Mackie
When I was in high school, I read the whole thing about Don King and he had this quote that said, Set yourself on fire and the world will pay to watch you burn. I thought that was the most amazing thing I'd ever heard and I wrote it on my wall.
Anthony Mackie
I just don't understand how people can get so caught up in having their picture taken.
Anthony Mackie
I would love to be a superhero.

One thing that I've been very vocal about roles I take, and my representation has been very smart about, is that I didn't go to Juilliard to be Thug #2 in movies. I like to be challenged. I'd say that about 40% of the roles I've done have been written for white men.
Anthony Mackie
I work out every day just to keep in shape. I feel like I never want to get stuck in a position where when you need somebody with great arms, you call Anthony Mackie. That hasn't been the calling card for my career, and nor do I want it to be.
Anthony Mackie
With all the movies I've done, I still get recognized from my episode of 'Law & Order' more than anything else. It never fails.

Acting is the only medium were people think they can just stand up and do it because they can say lines, but that is not so much the case. You have to study styles and techniques.
Anthony Mackie
I enjoy where I am and I don't have a problem with being Steve Buscemi, Stanley Tucci, Don Cheadle, or Jeffrey Wright. They're not the lead of every movie they're in, but every time you see them they're really good.
Anthony Mackie
I think you can only be outgoing when the person you're talking to is outgoing. I can be outgoing if I want to be, if you meet me halfway.
Anthony Mackie
Do you want to be an actor, or do you want to be a celebrity? I made that decision when I went to Juilliard. I wanted to be an actor. So, if I get the opportunity to be an actor and do some cool, fun and interesting projects, I’m going to do that.
Anthony Mackie
I haven't been able to grasp the concept of putting your life on the line for whatever reason people go into the military for. Some people just want to pay their bills, some people believe in their country and some people do it because their parents did it, but that's rough.
Anthony Mackie
People don't come to Marvel movies for personal life subplots, no.
Anthony Mackie
It's because the idea of what's cool is different. When you talk to a girl who goes to regular school, what's cool is whether or not you've been to jail, or if you have a car. If you talk to a girl who goes to art school, what's cool to her is if you do art projects on the weekend with your dad, if you can build something - out-of-the-norm stuff.
Anthony Mackie
As actors, the great thing about our career is we get to change from role to role. I don't want to be known as put him in the movie because he has nice abs guy.
Anthony Mackie
There are a lot of limitations and stigmas that are placed on young actors, specifically young black actors.

I'm happy to be an Avenger!
