When I first got out to Hollywood, they were pushing me for sitcoms, and I didn't really have an interest in them. I wanted to do films and slowly worked that way. And then it became, I guess, this curse of the leading man.

More quotes by Brad Pitt
When you see a person, do you just concentrate on their looks? It's just a first impression. Then there's someone who doesn't catch your eye immediately, but you talk to them and they become the most beautiful thing in the world. The greatest actors aren't what you would call beautiful sex symbols.
Brad Pitt
We still check in with each other. She was a big part of my life, and me hers. I don't see how there cannot be [that]. That's life, man. That's life.
Brad Pitt
I am very interested in architecture. I've been asked if I'd ever direct, but me, I'd rather build. It's very similar to directing, because you get to walk among this piece of art, to live in it, be surrounded by it, which is just thrilling.
Brad Pitt
I think L.A. is impossible. There's just too much media focus. You can't live a normal live.
Brad Pitt
I've always believed happiness is overrated, you know? It’s those difficult times that inform the next wonderful time, and it’s a series of trade-offs, of events, of wins and losses.
Brad Pitt
The kids ask about marriage. It's meaning more and more to them. So it's something we've got to look at.
Brad Pitt
A man inserted an 'ad' in the classifieds: Wife wanted. Next day he received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: You can have mine.

The scouts [in Moneyball] could lend an authenticity that's even beyond what we had on the page.

Where I grew up - we started out in Oklahoma and then moved to Missouri - it was considered hubris to talk about yourself. And the downside of that was that ideas rarely got exchanged, or true feelings.
Brad Pitt
I grew up in Oklahoma and Missouri, and I just loved film. My folks would take us to the drive-in on summer nights, and we'd sit on the hood of the car. I just had this profound love for storytelling.
Brad Pitt
When I was a boy, I would ask about my family history, about my bloodlines. We really didn't know that much. We had a little Indian in us from the Oklahoma Trail of Tears.
Brad Pitt
So much of making movies is about discovery on the day, what you're figuring out. If you know everything going in, then it's not worth doing - it's already done. I'm interested in finding people who I think have a voice - and a very specific voice.
Brad Pitt
I got into [producing] to be part of stories that wouldn't necessarily be right for me as an actor.
Brad Pitt
We are a generation of men raised by women. I'm beginning to wonder if another woman is what we really need.
Brad Pitt
You just have to get one misstep - that's an easy way to fall into caricature. Bad caricature.
Brad Pitt
My father came from a very poor background, but I was very fortunate in the sense that we were never in need. My dad was determined to make sure that we didn't want for things. He wanted to give us more opportunity than he had, a better shot at a better life.
Brad Pitt
Indian cinema seems to be growing very well at its own pace.
Brad Pitt
I was born in Shawnee, Oklahoma.
Brad Pitt
I'm actually very snobbish about directors. I have to say no all the time. 'No' is the most powerful word in our business. You've got to protect yourself… To leave home, it's got to be worth leaving. It's got to be worth it.
