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
I know how to dance with the wind, I can use its power by sailing this way, then that way, and again this way, till finally I get to you. With rowing, you're working primarily with your arms and shoulders. But with sailing, you're making bigger use of the wind and the waves.
Jeff Bridges
I do my best to hold the director's opinion above my own.
Jeff Bridges
That movie, 'Airplane!,' what a landmark film it was. It's a great, great movie.
Jeff Bridges
I've had really great experiences working with first-time directors. They come at filmmaking with fresh ideas. I've been very lucky that way.
Jeff Bridges
I'm very manipulative towards directors. My theory is that everyone on the set is directing the film, we're all receiving art messages from the universe on how we should do the film.
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
I used to be somebody. Now I’m somebody else.
Jeff Bridges
Your part can be the king, but unless people are treating you like royalty, you ain't no king, man.
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
All of this high-tech stuff is supposed to set us free and make life easier. To me, it makes it more difficult and demanding.
Jeff Bridges
If you're like me, I get hooked into to-do lists, you know. I'll say I checked that off. Okay, I did that. And you have all these things you're doing.
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 want to have all of my faculties.
Jeff Bridges
Sometimes, you can not click with somebody, and it can feel awkward.
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
I don't really consider myself one of those actors who takes his work home with him.
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
Execution is everything.
Jeff Bridges
Directing takes a lot of time.
