More quotes by Jeff Bridges
I love John Irving's stuff. It's that marriage of comedy and tragedy. It's really terrific.
Jeff Bridges
I'm pretty critical of myself as far as reaching some sort of perfect bull's-eye or target that I'm aiming for.
Jeff Bridges
I wish I were more disciplined.
Jeff Bridges
The wonderful thing about acting is that you can use all of your talents and interests in your work.
Jeff Bridges
I don't really consider myself one of those actors who takes his work home with him.
Jeff Bridges
It used to kind of upset me when I'd be working on a part in my hotel room, and I'd get an idea for a song and find myself on the guitar for an hour when I should be working on my lines. But I've discovered that when I start to shake up my creativity it wants to be expressed in all kinds of different ways. They all kind of inform each other.
Jeff Bridges
As a kid, you want to be liked for who you are. You don't want to be liked for who your parents are. You don't want to get a job because of who your parents are. You want to do it on your own, with your own gifts and your own value. So, I decided to spare my kids that and not be as pro-active as my dad was.
Jeff Bridges
I've worked with a lot of kids, and when you're working with kids they have certain hours that they have to work.
Jeff Bridges
I've worked with a lot of first-time directors who kind of look to me for ideas and opinions and stuff, and I'm a team player.
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
You know, I thought we could use a good myth about technology to help guide us through these particular modern waters right now.
Jeff Bridges
Sometimes I think of movie acting as advanced pretend.
Jeff Bridges
Well, when we made 'Tron' there was no internet, no cellphones.
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
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
I confessed to Mike [Cimino] a couple of days before we shot. I was like, What am I doing here, Mike? And Mike just looked at me, in that very directorial manor, took a long pause, and he said, You know the game tag? And I said, Yeah. And he said, Well, you're it. That was some of the best direction I think I've ever received.
Jeff Bridges
I don't have too much time to jam with the rest of Hollywood.
Jeff Bridges
Your part can be the king, but unless people are treating you like royalty, you ain't no king, man.
Jeff Bridges
You just have to work with your discomfort. ... It’s challenging, but you have to dance the dance that the band’s playing. You can’t say: “I came here to Cha Cha and they’re playing a Waltz, godammit!”
Jeff Bridges
You don't want to vilify your ego.
