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 have relationships with people I'm working with, based on our combined interest. It doesn't make the relationship any less sincere, but it does give it a focus that may not last beyond the experience.
Harrison Ford
If you're asking me to acknowledge that I've gotten older, I can do that.
Harrison Ford
I get an opportunity to communicate with the audience about the movie that I've made. I get the chance to bring attention to the film that I've made. I care a lot about the movies that I make. I want them to reach an audience, and I want them to be successful. I promote nearly everything that I do, unless I've got some bad taste in my mouth.
Harrison Ford
It's not the years honey, it's the mileage.
Harrison Ford
Nothing shocks me. I'm a scientist.
Harrison Ford
When I first started out, I was a bad actor.

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
I don't do a huge amount of physical activity. I play tennis, I work out sporadically, and I eat well and take care of myself.
Harrison Ford
I just don't think of age and time in respect of years. I have too much experience of people in their seventies who are vigorous and useful and people who are thirty-five who are in lousy physical shape and can't think straight. I don't think age has that much to do with it.
Harrison Ford
I'm still interested in perfecting whatever talents I have and continuing to grow as an actor and continuing to be useful to the telling of the story.
Harrison Ford
It doesn't interest me to be Harrison Ford. It interests me to be Mike Pomeroy and Indiana Jones and Jack Ryan. I don't want to be in the Harrison Ford business. I take what I do seriously, but I don't take myself seriously.
Harrison Ford
That's always my ambition is to create a character out of what will help tell the story. I've never been an actor to say my character wouldn't do that, because he should do that in order to help tell the story.
Harrison Ford
Los Angeles is where you have to be if you want to be an actor. You have no choice. You go there or New York. I flipped a coin about it. It came up New York, so I flipped again. When you're starting out to be an actor, who wants to go where it's cold and miserable and be poor there?
Harrison Ford
You know you're getting old when all the names in your black book have M. D. after them.
Harrison Ford
I never feel sexy. I have a distant relationship with the mirror.
Harrison Ford
I was completely unprepared for the public spectacle my private life became, and didn't like it a bit.
