More quotes by George Clooney
When you first start out, you are just happy to get a job, any job. And as time goes on, either you move forward or screech to a halt.
George Clooney
I don't believe in heaven and hell. I don't know if I believe in God. All I know is that as an individual, I won't allow this life - the only thing I know to exist - to be wasted.
George Clooney
We're picking on people we can beat.
George Clooney
An acting career usually has about a shelf life of ten years before people get sick of seeing you. It's a good thing to have a job to fall back on and I really do enjoy directing.
George Clooney
The loneliest you will get is in the most public of arenas: You will go to a place and end up in the smallest compartment possible, because it's a distraction to everybody, and you end up not getting to enjoy it like everyone else.
George Clooney
The people I've respected most in the industry over the years - Paul Newman, for instance. I just loved the way he handled growing old on-screen. It's understanding that you're now basically a character actor.
George Clooney
I think the reason why a lot of young people are such screw ups... is oftentimes they didn't have the luxury I had of forming important relationships and opinions and life experiences before having success.
George Clooney
I'm not completely against khakis. It's just the level that you have to wear them. The higher you pull them, then more excruciating it is.
George Clooney
As you get older and ease your way into being a character actor you have to be comfortable with where you are in life and career, and I'm very comfortable with what I'm doing - working on projects I'm proud of.
George Clooney
They say I was a bad Batman, that it was my fault, that I buried the franchise. But the truth is, it was a big project. I was pretty intimidated in that world. I did the best I could in the situation I was given.
George Clooney
I'm so lucky to have been raised the way I have, because my parents believed that everyone had the right to their own feelings, opinions, and existence as long as they weren't harming others, you had to defend those rights.
George Clooney
Having 'Oscar winner' on your tombstone is a great thing.
George Clooney
I don't know of an actor that the Coen brothers would come to and say, Hey, I've got a movie for you to be in, if you want to do it, that would say, No. That's the truth.
George Clooney
My little animal secrets must remain my little animal secrets. How I do my nails, that is really my business.
George Clooney
I'd think,'In a relationship, we should never have his kind of fight.' Then, instead of figuring out how to make it work, I looked for a way to get out of it. The truth is, you shouldn't be married if your that kind of person.
George Clooney
My grandparents back in Kentucky owned a tobacco farm. So to make money in the summer we could cut and chop and top and house and strip the tobacco.
George Clooney
I have been directing and involved in producing and the creating of films for quite a while as well as acting. I always think in terms of what the director needs, and not just for this scene but for the film.
George Clooney
America can't beat anyone anymore.
George Clooney
There's a certain cruelty to being on a big screen as your eyelids start to sag and your hair falls out and turns gray that you either have to be able to handle or not. What you can't do is try to force yourself into roles that you could have played or would have played ten years earlier.
George Clooney
I'm really white trash.
