More quotes by Eric Bana
A girl's got to be fun. It's the one bit of advice I always give to friends of mine who are thinking of getting married.
Eric Bana
I just think that's the job of an actor. I guess that's the variation that you're talking about. It's probably a byproduct of just constantly looking for something different, because that's what I feel like I'm supposed to do.
Eric Bana
I knew a bit but we don't study a lot of British history at school in Australia. We have our own 50-year period to concentrate on.
Eric Bana
It really depends on the director. I think quite often, it's not what you expect. The most serious film can be the most fun. The one that's supposed to be fun can be the most serious. I don't think there are any hard-and-fast rules. I just think it really depends on your director and what the general vibe is.
Eric Bana
I would never say never to returning to comedy.
Eric Bana
There's a plethora of wonderful documentaries. I made a point of not looking at anyone else's portrayal of Henry because I think it would have been too confusing - so I've got a lot of films to look forward to.
Eric Bana
I wanted to be a mechanic. When I was 14 I wanted to quit school and go work on my car. But my dad said Son, you shouldn't do that. You should stay in school until your education is finished, and when you're done, don't make your hobby your job.
Eric Bana
I've always described parts as tattoos. For actors our tattoos are in the form of films.
Eric Bana
My chosen exercise is cycling. I just love it.
Eric Bana
The only thing that may make me different from other people is I have passionate interests outside of work.
Eric Bana
I don't like to come at my character from some really technical place.
Eric Bana
I've had frustrated storytelling juices that have been lying dormant for a long time, and I guess the documentary was a way of me telling a story that I felt most qualified to tell. And I loved it, and I'd love to do something else someday, probably more narrative-based. But I'm in no rush.
Eric Bana
I think there are times when you walk onto a set you can potentially be either intimidated or distracted by what's going on around you.
Eric Bana
I'd say I'm the opposite of someone that has the urge to stand in front of strangers and make them laugh, but the idea of getting up and telling a story and people finding it amusing always appealed to me.
Eric Bana
I think you need to be able to see a lot of negative in things in order to extract material, so there's probably something to that. A lot of the people I used to work with were very, very, very unfunny offstage, so that's a pretty common thing.
Eric Bana
When I go on the plane to fly home, I'm literally capable of forgetting what I do for a job. That also comes about because I choose to take massive breaks between projects, and because I choose to do this ridiculous thing of keeping home, home.
Eric Bana
I look my best when I take my helmet off after a long motorcycle ride. I have a glow and a bit of helmet hair.
Eric Bana
I've never been someone that's had a five-year plan, or a three-year plan. That just seems to lead to a lot of disappointment, and doesn't give you the chance to be flexible.
Eric Bana
I think luck gets you on to the stage. But it has nothing to do with keeping you there.
Eric Bana
I think love can come fairly easily and grow - but really liking the core essence of someone is a much harder thing to bottle. If you have both, you're in pretty good shape.
