More quotes by Christopher Reeve
I have never been disabled in my dreams.
Christopher Reeve
Nothing of any consequence happens unless people get behind an idea. It begins with an individual and they share the idea with more individuals-and eventually it becomes a movement.
Christopher Reeve
To be able to feel the lightest touch really is a gift.
Christopher Reeve
In the face of adversity, hope often comes in the form of a friend who reaches out to us.
Christopher Reeve
Maybe one way I am original is that at heart I really am a classical actor. I haven't had my chance yet in the commercial world to show that. Movies aren't really made about classical people so much any more.
Christopher Reeve
The character is a piece of fiction. You are yourself, however, and that makes you interesting, because you're alive and you're a human being.
Christopher Reeve
People may never understand this - and perhaps I should give up caring whether they do or not - but the idea of me playing Superman is so far away from what I was brought up to aspire to.
Christopher Reeve
Either you decide to stay in the shallow end of the pool or you go out in the ocean.
Christopher Reeve
You can do anything you think you can.
Christopher Reeve
I am a very lucky guy. I can testify before Congress. I can raise funds. I can raise awareness.
Christopher Reeve
It's defeatist to harp on what might have been, and yet, it's hard to resist considering what might have been.
Christopher Reeve
In the second half of the 20th century, people are becoming more limited: Vocabularies are smaller, thoughts are smaller, aspirations are smaller, everything is very scaled down. Everyone is typecast.
Christopher Reeve
Having that college-town atmosphere with a live repertory company available was a real gift. I found myself gravitating toward the theater from about the age of nine. I guess it was the environment that got me started.
Christopher Reeve
Don't put a limit on what can be accomplished.
Christopher Reeve
Even though I don't personally believe in the Lord, I try to behave as though He was watching.
Christopher Reeve
We can either watch life from the sidelines, or actively participate... Either we let self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy prevent us from realising our potential, or embrace the fact that when we turn our attention away from ourselves, our potential is limitless.
Christopher Reeve
I don't think actors are to blame for poor writing. The culture changes first, and the theater follows it. In the case of the movies, it's the same thing.
Christopher Reeve
Living a life with meaning means spreading the word. Even if you can't move, you can have a powerful effect with what you say.
Christopher Reeve
Once we choose hope, everything is possible.
Christopher Reeve
When we turn our attention away from ourselves, our potential is limitless.
