The only thing you sometimes have control over is perspective. You don't have control over your situation. But you have a choice about how you view it.

More quotes by Chris Pine
I think the most dangerous word in the English language is 'should.' 'I should have done this.' Or 'I should do that.' 'Should' implies responsibility. It connotes demand. Which is just not the case. Life ebbs and flows.
Chris Pine
I still have anonymity, which is great. I can go out anywhere I want and no one ever recognizes me.
Chris Pine
Fear runs our lives a lot of the time. You can face it head-on, or you can hide in your bunker.
Chris Pine
Working together always works together better... it also appeals to a primal, animal thing, which is that humans are social creatures.
Chris Pine
[ The Finest Hours] reminded me a lot of a film I did called Unstoppable in that you have a driving thriller aspect of the film and it's not all that complicated of a story and there's a simple elegance to it. I liked that. It is also driven by a really strong romance and ordinary men doing extraordinary things. I love that.
Chris Pine
It's not always the case that things will fall into your lap or that life will be great, but it's all about perspective and having a positive outlook. If something goes wrong you say: That happened for a reason, what can I learn from that and how can I grow?
Chris Pine
I work out because that's my job, but what I enjoy about it, beyond the vanity, is the Zen of it. I like getting out of my head, and one great way to do that is to sweat your face off. And to know that, if you're thinking of anything else, you're not working intensely enough.
Chris Pine
My nipples could cut glass.
Chris Pine
It's a fun thing for journalists to say that Captain Kirk is the boyfriend role. I'm happy to give a laugh. But it's a really complex story.
Chris Pine
For me growing up, Christmas time was always the most fantastic, exciting time of year, and you'd stay up until three in the morning. You'd hear the parents wrapping in the other room but you knew that also, maybe, they were in collusion with Santa Claus.
Chris Pine
I feel prematurely old. I'm actually having this major belated quarter-life crisis. I'm turning 30 in a couple of weeks. I've been thinking a lot about mortality. A lot about what I'm going to do with my life and how to enjoy it. One of the things I'm going to work on is being more spontaneous, letting go, embracing the beauty of come-what-may.
Chris Pine
I'm certainly not the lead of the film 'Wonder Woman' and I don't have a problem with that.
Chris Pine
I'm so envious of that genetic wiring that immediately puts a smile on your face. My genetic wiring just puts creases in my eyebrows.
Chris Pine
We come from fallible parents who were kids once, who decided to have kids and who had to learn how to be parents. Faults are made and damage is done, whether it's conscious or not. Everyone's got their own 'stuff,' their own issues, and their own anger at Mom and Dad. That is what family is. Family is almost naturally dysfunctional.
Chris Pine
I had a job at this French restaurant, and I hated it. I don't like serving I don't like getting people ketchup.
Chris Pine
The more you are positive and say: I want to have a good life. The more you build that reality for yourself by creating the life that you want.

I think the first thing that I saw on IMAX was 'The Avengers.' The scope and the size of it are pretty neat, I will say that.
Chris Pine
Theatre is so much fun because you do theatre and you have a month of working it out on your own, and then a month of rehearsal, so by the time you get to stage I know where I'm failing and I know where I'm succeeding and your boundaries are pretty concrete.
Chris Pine
I performed and sang at school but as a child it was never anything I was interested in doing professionally.
Chris Pine
One thing that I do find really sexy is a girl who's good at crossword puzzles.
