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.

More quotes by Brad Pitt
I haven't known life to be any happier.
Brad Pitt
If someone wants to do drugs ... as long as he or she isn't corrupting minors or driving under the influence or endangering others, shouldn't a person have that right?
Brad Pitt
You know, you find that these stories ... will turn one of us into the good guy and one of us into the bad guy. If you look at it closely or even not that closely ... it's ridiculous.
Brad Pitt
You hear stories of intense actors who can't shed their character and who don't know who they are for a week or two after. I'm not that guy, man.
Brad Pitt
I quit, and then I started again, and then I quit, and then I started again.
Brad Pitt
I believe in the power of journalism. To make informed decisions, you have to have an understanding of the dynamics of a situation. And journalism does bridge gaps and creates dialogue.
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
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
I dare make those comparisons, but we often said 'the making of' would be as interesting if not more interesting than the film.
Brad Pitt
Most of the time is with the family. Most of the time, is all the time. When we work it's a very intensive chunk of time. We work for 12 hours a day, 14 hours a day is common. And we'll do that for a few months and then we get to relax a little bit.
Brad Pitt
Family comes first so I only have this specific window of time available to me and because of that I actually get more done.
Brad Pitt
America is a country founded on guns. It's in our DNA. It's very strange but I feel better having a gun. I really do. I don't feel safe, I don't feel the house is completely safe, if I don't have one hidden somewhere. That's my thinking, right or wrong.
Brad Pitt
I believe you make your day. You make your life. So much of it is all perception, and this is the form that I built for myself. I have to accept it and work within those compounds, and it's up to me.
Brad Pitt
For me a film is at its best when you can start filling in the story with your own life experience.
Brad Pitt
When I received my first paycheck from my now known day job, I spent it on a period Craftsman chair and a Frank Lloyd Wright-wannabe lamp. With my second paycheck, I bought a stereo.
Brad Pitt
I keep hearing I'm a crazy party guy... I'm not. I'm boring... At least by party standards.
Brad Pitt
Each misstep leads to the next correct step.
Brad Pitt
Democracy doesn't work unless the public is informed.
Brad Pitt
I always liked those moments of epiphany, when you have the next destination.
Brad Pitt
I've had the luxury of travel and, in the luxury of travel, I've seen the detriments of poverty and I've gone on to see how easy the cures can be - cures that cost cents to the richest nations in the world.
Brad Pitt
