More quotes by Brad Pitt
Success is a beast. And it actually puts the emphasis on the wrong thing. You get away with more instead of looking within.
Brad Pitt
Kids are dying from diarrhea ... that just shouldn't be in this day and age, and it's that kind of thing that needs to be changed. Enough is enough
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
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 was hiding out from the celebrity thing, I was smoking way too much [marijuana].
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
I don't think I was all that late in becoming a father.

Iliad by Homer is one of the great stories in literature. And I thought its themes really resonated today, whether that was my projection or Homer's intentions. It didn't seem like we had come very far.
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.
Brad Pitt
Plan B is really a little garage band of three people, and our mandate has been to help get difficult material, that might not otherwise get made, to the screen and to work with directors we respect.
Brad Pitt
Whilst acting is my career, architecture is my passion. Selecting this development as my first major construction project has been a simple decision. It will underpin not only my values for environmentally friendly architecture, but also embrace my career in entertainment
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
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
Heartthrobs are a dime a dozen.
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
It's hard to be surprised by a film. It's hard to be surprised by another actor or by a director when you've seen enough and been around. So when I am, or when I forget that I'm watching someone's movie, or when I don't know how someone made a certain turn that I didn't expect... You know, I'm in.
Brad Pitt
I always heard criticism is the tax on fame. They were right. And then some.
Brad Pitt
I have very few friends. I have a handful of close friends, and I have my family, and I haven't known life to be any happier.
Brad Pitt
You don't really get to choose who you fall in love with. Love chooses you.
Brad Pitt
A family is a risky venture, because the greater the love, the greater the loss... That's the trade-off. But I'll take it all.
