More quotes by Jeff Bridges
Often when I finish a film I'll have that feeling inside me: 'I never want to do this ever again. I don't want to pretend anymore. I want to be myself and do that.' And then, thank God, that feeling goes away after a month or so and I'm raring to go again.
Jeff Bridges
Well, there are all kinds of gutters. Life will supply you with gutters.
Jeff Bridges
You prep, you prep, you prep. And on the day that you film, you let all of that go. I try to achieve emptiness as much as possible - the Zen thing - to let the deal come out of that nothing.
Jeff Bridges
I consider myself pretty lazy, but I look back and check out the stuff I've done, and I say, 'God, that's a lot of stuff for a lazy guy.' It's a paradox, I suppose, being both things.
Jeff Bridges
Basically, one of the hardest things about being an actor is getting your first break. I'm a product of nepotism. The doors were open to me. I'd done several movies before I decided what I wanted to do.
Jeff Bridges
The Big Lebowski is a real masterpiece, as far as I'm concerned. I suppose I'm a bit biased because I'm in it.
Jeff Bridges
Technology is such a broad kind of term, it really applies to so many things, from the electric light to running cars on oil. All of these different things can be called technology. I have kind of a love-hate relationship with it, as I expect most people do. With the computer, I spend so many hours sitting in front of a computer.
Jeff Bridges
You know, ballet might be too formal of a title for the type of dance I do, but I love to dance.
Jeff Bridges
I'm not counting any chickens.
Jeff Bridges
The Oscar nomination is great. It's a great pat on the back. And I like that.
Jeff Bridges
One of the greatest feelings in the world is knowing that we as individuals can make a difference. Ending hunger in America is a goal that is literally within our grasp.
Jeff Bridges
Sometimes you'll have a movie that you're very proud of and you think it transcended all of your expectations but it doesn't come out at the right time. I have done movies that have never been released. That can be depressing.
Jeff Bridges
You don't want to vilify your ego.
Jeff Bridges
If you change partners every time it gets tough or you get a little dissatisfied, then I don't think you get the richness that's available in a long-term relationship.
Jeff Bridges
Normally, we push away the things we're scared of.
Jeff Bridges
If you're married you'll have tough times.
Jeff Bridges
Play doesn't have to be a frivolous thing. You may think of a Beethoven symphony as something serious, but it's still being played. I think Oscar Wilde said that life is too important to be taken seriously.
Jeff Bridges
35 million people in the U.S. are hungry or don't know where their next meal is coming from, and 13 million of them are children. If another country were doing this to our children, we'd be at war.
Jeff Bridges
My mother and my father were very nurturing and wonderful examples of how to live your life.
Jeff Bridges
I first got involved with ending world hunger, and I got hip to the facts about it - what a huge problem it was and how it wasn't a matter of not having food or not knowing how to end it, but it was a matter of creating the political will.
Jeff Bridges
