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
My nana was an actress, my mom was an actress, and my sister, too. So because I was surrounded by it, it really came naturally.
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
Women think that men don't talk about their feelings with guys. We do talk to friends about relationships, but it's succinct - 10 minutes, then we move on.
Chris Pine
Even now, I'm better around people who are uncomfortable with themselves, the misfits.
Chris Pine
Whether you're scared of getting into a relationship or taking the new job or a confrontation - you have to size fear up.
Chris Pine
It feels great to not be the acne-ridden outsider that I felt like when I was in high school. It's a lot more fun being alive now than it was then, I'll say that much.
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
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 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
Anybody who's gone through puberty has understood what it feels like to be an outcast and alone.
Chris Pine
I still have anonymity, which is great. I can go out anywhere I want and no one ever recognizes me.
Chris Pine
I'm always surprised reading my old journals. There's this idea that life is hard now, but then I'll reach that moment where it'll change. But there's no summit. It's a constant climb.
Chris Pine
My nipples could cut glass.
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
I performed and sang at school but as a child it was never anything I was interested in doing professionally.
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
Generally speaking, the more money that's involved in anything, the more people are expecting and hoping that it's not going to fail.
Chris Pine
The customer is not always right.
Chris Pine
I think it's not fair to the uniqueness and wonderfulness of the individuals, that we can complement one another greatly, but we are not the source of each other's happiness, especially if you don't know who the hell you're talking to.
Chris Pine
We tell each other stories so we can understand the world better and there's catharsis and we understand the models of what a hero could be and what the hero's journey as a human being is all about. But unfortunately, I think sometimes those stories too can be very prohibitive and confining.
