Harrison Ford
I had no expectation of the level of adulation that would come my way. I just wanted to make a living with a regular role in a television series.
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.

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.
Harrison Ford
What I think is important for a young person is to figure out how to be useful and not be so concentrated on themselves, but to see what they can do to make the overall collaboration with all the other people involved in a movie work better.
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
Everything I do, I'm sort of half in, half out.
Harrison Ford
I try to preserve a certain amount of time away from the movies, so I don't allow time to do those smaller parts that might give me an opportunity to do more seemingly 'artful' things. Although, having said that, I don't feel any lack of noble purpose if I do a film that's commercial.
