More quotes by 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 hate it when there's a good movie, someone overhypes it and I'm disappointed that I don't like it more.
Jeff Bridges
A lot of people don't really understand what rehearsal's about. People are afraid they're gonna leave it in the dressing room, or you're gonna shoot your wad in rehearsal.
Jeff Bridges
I was loving music, and loving art, painting, so I was considering those things, but I must say I dug acting as well.
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
If you change partners every time it gets tough or you get a little dissatisfied, then I don't think you get the richness that's available in a long-term relationship.
Jeff Bridges
I don't have too many plans filled out. I know I want to keep doing more music. I've got a couple of albums worth of songs I'd like to put it out there. As far as movies, I just want to continue how I've been doing it: working with terrific people is certainly on my agenda, and then doing stories that interest me.
Jeff Bridges
You have that Frank Capra kind of side to it and the characters are really well drawn, so I think everybody tried their best to stay faithful to the script.
Jeff Bridges
I'd done about 10 movies before I decided I wanted to make acting the main thrust of my career.
Jeff Bridges
The Big Lebowski is a real masterpiece, as far as I'm concerned. I suppose I'm a bit biased because I'm in it.
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
Sometimes, you can not click with somebody, and it can feel awkward.
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'm kind of an idea guy.
Jeff Bridges
I'm at this time in life when I have to take the opportunities I have left.
Jeff Bridges
It's funny. You succeed, but now where are you gonna go from there? I've got to keep proving that I can laugh or cry more real each time.
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
I'm not locked into playing one guy.
Jeff Bridges
So I have this word for much of what I do in life: 'plorking.' I'm not playing and I'm not working, I'm plorking.
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.
