More quotes by 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
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
Myths are wonderful - they really tell the stories that connect all of us and teach us so much.
Jeff Bridges
You don't want to vilify your ego.
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
I have a cycle that is not particularly cool, but it's a cycle: trash myself to reward myself.
Jeff Bridges
If you're married you'll have tough times.
Jeff Bridges
I think it would really be more like 10 films before I locked in and said, Yeah, I'm really gonna do this thing.
Jeff Bridges
Everybody loses a couple, and you either pack it up and go home or you keep on fighting.
Jeff Bridges
I'm not counting any chickens.
Jeff Bridges
I loved working with my brother [Beau] and my father [Lloyd] whenever that happened. I had a wonderful experience making The Fabulous Baker Boys, which I felt was a great movie, too.
Jeff Bridges
My m.o. as far as choosing projects is I really try not to work. I try to not do the scripts that are offered me. I'm in this wonderful position to be able to do that. The reason I do that is because I know what it takes once I engage, what that means for me personally and for my wife.
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
Memories are not just about the past. They determine our future.
Jeff Bridges
Normally, we push away the things we're scared of.
Jeff Bridges
The problem with the designated driver programme, it's not a desirable job. But if you ever get sucked into doing it, have fun with it. At then end of the night drop them off at the wrong house.
Jeff Bridges
I love John Irving's stuff. It's that marriage of comedy and tragedy. It's really terrific.
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
As far as Beau is concerned, we're on the same team, we root for each other. If my parts are slightly more attractive, or are perceived that way by others, he's very content.
Jeff Bridges
For me and my wife, it was love at first sight.
