More quotes by Don Cheadle
Living by example - that's always a better teacher than trying to preach.
Don Cheadle
It's much easier to cry or be angry, but to really laugh and genuinely be buoyant and laugh. That's hard if you don't really feel that way.
Don Cheadle
The best thing that I learned from the best directors that I worked with is that the best answer wins. They are ego-less when it comes to doing the most important thing.
Don Cheadle
I've been doing this since I was 10 years old, inhabiting different people and playing different roles.
Don Cheadle
Speak up when you're supposed to, as opposed to trying to write prescriptions for the way people should live.
Don Cheadle
People have always been obsessed by celebrities. There are just more outlets and opportunities to make a living exploiting that obsession nowadays.
Don Cheadle
So often when Black men have to play roles on TV, we're either the noble savage or we're completely a savage, and there's no nuance.
Don Cheadle
I think we should all be more concerned about the environment and the effects of global warming. It will be pointless to talk about all the issues that divide us when it's 300 degrees outside.
Don Cheadle
I imagine it was much different in the 1970s. That was the Renaissance for black actors, albeit in blaxploitation movies. There was a much greater preponderance of work then than there is now.
Don Cheadle
When I'm the person in front of the microphone, and I'm the person in the light, I want to reflect and refract the light onto places where they need the attention, where I don't need it.
Don Cheadle
Kids clearly help center you because you can't impress your kids. People are like, Oh, are they so excited because you're Ironman? My kids couldn't care less. They like it when I hang out and play dad. I impress them by playing video games with them and doing well. Your kids humble you.
Don Cheadle
We're really trying to give people the ability to go into a darkened room and have a couple hours of just pure enjoyment.
Don Cheadle
I pray that our leaders stop pointing fingers and playing the blame game and seek a real solution for the good of the planet and all who inhabit it.
Don Cheadle
I think having good family and friends really helps to ground you.
Don Cheadle
President Obama inherited a broken country mired in two wars, a financial crisis, a mortgage mess and more than we all probably even know about and has in my opinion brought us back from the brink. But I still see my friends in no better shape and the gap widening.
Don Cheadle
I've never been a part of a film before that offers such a platform into real issues, that raises social awareness and has the potential to change things.
Don Cheadle
I think if you were to look at my resume in total you would see a lot of things that are kind of all over the map.
Don Cheadle
Yeah! I went to the set of Monuments Men.
Don Cheadle
I was brought into the curiosity of it because with Sony Pictures Classics, which bought the movie, they look into what the feedback is and base that off of how they release it, and you end up hearing the feedback and getting that early talk. So the reviews early on that were bad reviews, they were kind of reviewing another movie.
Don Cheadle
You should do what you're supposed to do and hope that that ripples out.
