Generally speaking I would say I enjoy the smaller films more because there's a less sense of pressure and often the material is more unusual.

More quotes by Jeff Bridges
Your part can be the king, but unless people are treating you like royalty, you ain't no king, man.
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
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
Execution is everything.
Jeff Bridges
I have my prized possession in my wallet. That's a photograph of the first words I ever uttered to my wife, and her answer to my question when I asked her, Will you go out with me?
Jeff Bridges
When I'm working, I'm very purposeful and everything else gets out of focus. Something I've had to work on together with my wife is how to acknowledge each other in the midst of this and keep the relationship going.
Jeff Bridges
My father Lloyd Bridges was very versatile in his parts, but he had a hit in the '60s 'Sea Hunt,' where he played a skin diver. And he was so into that role that people actually thought he was a skin-diver.
Jeff Bridges
Eating ice cream and not exercising is great. The downside is your health isn't so good.
Jeff Bridges
I did [Michael Cimino] first movie, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, and I remember I was still in my twenties and very nervous, we're shooting up in Montana, and I'm thinking, What the hell am I doing here? I don't feel anything like this part.
Jeff Bridges
Well, when we made 'Tron' there was no internet, no cellphones.
Jeff Bridges
I've done several commercials and I've done voiceovers for documentaries.
Jeff Bridges
One of my favorite artists is Tom Waits, whom most people think of as a wonderful singer-songwriter and a great poet. I certainly think of him that way, but I also know him as a terrific actor. You know, that persona that he puts on when he's doing his music comes from being an actor, figuring out a persona.
Jeff Bridges
One of the things I want to do that's outside the realm of acting and the arts - although both have their place in this - is ending childhood hunger here in America.
Jeff Bridges
As far as 3-D goes, I don't know if that will stay very long because things are moving so rapidly.
Jeff Bridges
For me and my wife, it was love at first sight.
Jeff Bridges
The Oscar nomination is great. It's a great pat on the back. And I like that.
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
When you start to engage with your creative processes, it shakes up all your impulses, and they all kind of inform one another.
Jeff Bridges
It was fortunate for all of us to have Joaquin Jackson, who is a very renowned Texas Ranger, on board. He spent quite a few days with us on set and he added a lot to it for me on what it's like to be a Texas Ranger.
Jeff Bridges
I'm drawn to the path of least resistance.
