Jake Gyllenhaal
I like the conscious manipulation that a great director can have. When you're both complicit in the manipulation of an emotion.
Jake Gyllenhaal
They're the darkest people I know, comedians.

When I was younger, I did work with coach. I went to this place called Actors Space in the Valley. I was pretty young, and we were doing acting and improvisation. But no, no I didn't go to RADA, I didn't do that. But I do now work with an acting coach, primarily for the initial intellectual connection to the material.

One of the things that I'm so proud of [about] that movie [Brokeback Mountain], was to see, within the past basically 10 years, how much has changed. When the Supreme Court [issued a ruling] just a little while ago, I felt like we had been part, a little part and parcel of that movement.

It's one of the most beautiful scripts [Brokeback Mountain] I've ever read, and it was Ang Lee, and at the time Heath [Ledger] was a friend of mine - before we even shot the movie - and always sort of alluring to me.

Jake Gyllenhaal
I think, now, younger generations do take that for granted in a lot of ways. I don't think that takes away from the struggle of identity and what that is. But the struggle for identity is everybody's struggle. No matter what it is.
Jake Gyllenhaal
I think my strength is to do a take all the way through. I am definitely not someone who can do a sprint. Maybe I am not that smart, but it takes me a while to find the moment, and I like to be pushed toward it.
Jake Gyllenhaal
By cool, I don't mean cool. I mean vulnerable and a mess.
Jake Gyllenhaal
Every journey starts with fear.
Jake Gyllenhaal
I'm a harsh critic, you know? I am.
Jake Gyllenhaal
I think I find tactile things, you know. Just the feeling of blood itself is enough for me. If you, even if it's not real blood. I mean that's enough, like sometimes there are very simple things that are enough.
Jake Gyllenhaal
I admire actors and artists who devote just as much time to their life as they do to their work.
Jake Gyllenhaal
You know, it's flattering when there's a rumor that says I'm bisexual. It means I can play more kinds of roles. I'm open to whatever people want to call me. I've never really been attracted to men sexually, but I don't think I would be afraid of it if it happened.
Jake Gyllenhaal
When somebody's really good, they're not just thinking about their job.
Jake Gyllenhaal
As an actor, no matter what, you're at the whim of so many other people all the time.
Jake Gyllenhaal
It's amazing how the world has changed because, at that time [2005], a lot of actors didn't want to play a gay role.
