I've certainly done some turkeys along the way and made some dumb choices in my career, mostly early on. I'm one of the lucky ones who got to make a lot of mistakes very early when no one was paying attention.

More quotes by George Clooney
I've walked with very famous people down red carpets over to the crowd of thousands of people, and you'll reach out to shake their hand and they've got a camera in their hand. And they don't even get their hand out, because they're recording the whole time.
George Clooney
I think there are a lot of great journalists out there. I don't find much fault in the journalist in general I think everybody would like to break a good story.
George Clooney
I bought a piano once because I had the dream of playing As Time Goes By as some girl's leaning on it drinking a martini. Great image. But none of it worked out. I can't even play Chopsticks. But I've got a nice piano at my house!
George Clooney
It's incredibly unfair. You don't see a lot of 60-year-old women with 20-year-old men onscreen.
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
I love children and I get along with them great. It's just that I believe if you're going to be a parent, there has to be something inside you that says, 'I want a family.' I don't feel that sense of urgency.
George Clooney
There is a strange pecking order among actors. Theatre actors look down on film actors, who look down on TV actors. Thank God for reality shows, or we wouldn't have anybody to look down on.
George Clooney
Newsman are the ones who - without them we don't have a civil rights movement, we don't have a women's movement, we don't have a Vietnam movement.
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 rarely tell anybody what they should be doing with their life.
George Clooney
The only failure is not to try.
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
I'm always sort of optimistic about how good we are, as a country, at fixing ourselves.
George Clooney
The first thing that I learned - and I understood it at a really young age - was that I could get a laugh. Really early. Because my mother and father are funny.
George Clooney
The owner of a local cannabis café told reporters George Clooney was no stranger there.
George Clooney
I've been in relationships where I've felt terribly alone. Just because you're with someone, it doesn't mean you're happy.
George Clooney
Hosting is work. It means you don't get to go up to your room and disappear and take a nap. Like everybody else does after lunch. I'm talking about hosting, not hosting a dinner party, but hosting people staying in your home.
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
Who would name their kid Jack with the last words 'off' at the end of the last name? No wonder that guy is screwed up.
George Clooney
The first question is something immediate -- and immediately, we need humanitarian aid to be allowed into the Sudan before it becomes the worst humanitarian crisis in the world.
