Nowadays, in the contract that actors sign, you have to agree that you're going to do a certain amount of publicity-the hard part they don't pay you for.

More quotes by Jeff Bridges
I used to be somebody. Now I’m somebody else.
Jeff Bridges
The wonderful thing about acting is that you can use all of your talents and interests in your work.
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
Life is having its way with me now. And I'm really pleased.
Jeff Bridges
I love John Irving's stuff. It's that marriage of comedy and tragedy. It's really terrific.
Jeff Bridges
There's kind of a Zen aspect to bowling. The pins are either staying up or down before you even throw your arm back. It's kind of a mind-set. You want to be in this perfect mind-set before you released the ball.
Jeff Bridges
Eating ice cream and not exercising is great. The downside is your health isn't so good.
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 gotta take notes when things occur to me.
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
For me and my wife, it was love at first sight.
Jeff Bridges
Sometimes I think of movie acting as advanced pretend.
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
Live like you're already dead, man. Have a good time. Do your best. Let it all come ripping right through you.
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
Directing takes a lot of time.
Jeff Bridges
I'm not real good at romance.
Jeff Bridges
I think my love of journalizing my life comes from my mom.
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
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. But in Iron Man it was kind of like both worlds colliding because there was a lot of improvisation, not that we improv-ed in the scenes but to discover the actual scenes themselves.
