The focus and the concentration and the attention to detail that flying takes is a kind of meditation. I find it restful and engaging, and other things slip away.

More quotes by Harrison Ford
I found out that drama was a fascinating exercise as a way to get out of my self and into somebody else's head.
Harrison Ford
I never feel sexy. I have a distant relationship with the mirror.
Harrison Ford
I thought it was funny. I always thought Star Wars and Indiana Jones were basically comedies. The humour came out of their relationships it came out of the fact that we were basically types.
Harrison Ford
Nothing shocks me. I'm a scientist.
Harrison Ford
A bad guy in a movie has a lot of latitude for acting. He can walk up the wall, crawl across the ceiling, go piss in the corner and everybody will say, Fantastic! But somebody's going to have to catch that sucker. Somebody's going to have to play the guy who gets him in the end. And that's a better part.
Harrison Ford
I think people only have so much interest in anybody, and if you barrage them in between the times you have something to offer them you become a personality rather than an actor - much more short-lived. I only work once a year. And that's enough.
Harrison Ford
Money is really only important if you don't have any.
Harrison Ford
What is news? It's hard to quantify. Certainly news has changed completely, and the morning shows are not really designed to bring you the news, except to tell you what happened overnight, and the rest of it is a kind of magazine mentality - a little bit of this, a little bit of that. It's harder to be an educated and informed citizen.
Harrison Ford
[On being an actor] .nothing more than a worker in a service occupation . It's like being a waiter or a gas station attendant, but I'm waiting on 6 million people in a week if I'm lucky.
Harrison Ford
I shaved my hairline back and dyed my hair and wore a little powder, a little paint, a fat suit, and I changed my voice, but the emotions were consistent with what the point of the scene [with Branch Rickey] was.
Harrison Ford
What I observed about my fellow actors was that most gave up very easily.
Harrison Ford
To me, success is choice and opportunity.
Harrison Ford
There are a lot of different paths through the jungle, but...the simplest thing you can do is make yourself useful. Be easy to work with, be a hard worker and help people get the job done. And do it with as much passion and quality as you can.
Harrison Ford
I get mad when people call me an action movie star. Indiana Jones is an adventure film, a comic book, a fantasy.
Harrison Ford
The Force is within you. Force yourself.
Harrison Ford
There is no child left within me, none whatsoever.
Harrison Ford
When I first started out, I was a bad actor.
Harrison Ford
The kindest word to describe my performance in school was Sloth.
Harrison Ford
My character is meant to know nothing about rap, and not to like it very much, but I know about it, because my kids make me listen to it. There's some rap I do like very much. I like Eminem, Blackalicious.
Harrison Ford
Everything I do, I'm sort of half in, half out.
Harrison Ford
