More quotes by 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
35 million people in the U.S. are hungry or don't know where their next meal is coming from, and 13 million of them are children. If another country were doing this to our children, we'd be at war.
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
I'm always busy, but I'm lazy as well.
Jeff Bridges
I'm in New Mexico making a movie called Granite Mountain. I'm playing the head of the organization called Statesman, which is the United States version of Kingsman. I'm like how Michael Caine was in the original.
Jeff Bridges
Sometimes I think of movie acting as advanced pretend.
Jeff Bridges
I remember being on a black-and-white set all day and then going out into daylight and being amazed by the colour.
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
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
Everybody loses a couple, and you either pack it up and go home or you keep on fighting.
Jeff Bridges
I love John Irving's stuff. It's that marriage of comedy and tragedy. It's really terrific.
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
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
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
I don't have one movie that is my favorite, I have about 25-30 favorites.
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.
Jeff Bridges
Your part can be the king, but unless people are treating you like royalty, you ain't no king, man.
Jeff Bridges
Life is having its way with me now. And I'm really pleased.
Jeff Bridges
I love westerns, I'd love to make more of them.
Jeff Bridges
I gotta take notes when things occur to me.
