More quotes by Jeff Bridges
I love westerns, I'd love to make more of them.
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 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'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
Your part can be the king, but unless people are treating you like royalty, you ain't no king, man.
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
You can relate to somebody's pain and you have compassion, which can lead to intimacy.
Jeff Bridges
I don't have one movie that is my favorite, I have about 25-30 favorites.

When I was really young, my mom enrolled me in dance classes. Mom, I'm too young to dance, I told her. She kind of forced me, but I ended up loving it, and after the first lesson I came back and said, Come on, Mom, I'll show you the box step. That introduced me not just to dancing but also to working with someone without having a goal.

Live like you're already dead, man. Have a good time. Do your best. Let it all come ripping right through you.
Jeff Bridges
I used to be somebody. Now I’m somebody else.
Jeff Bridges
Working with my dad was such a gas. We approached the work in a similar way. We only made two films together when I was an adult, Tucker, and Blown Away, but it was so much fun to play with your parent like that.
Jeff Bridges
Any role that big is going to be a challenge for any actor, but for an actor of a young age, it's going to be even tougher.
Jeff Bridges
Well, there are all kinds of gutters. Life will supply you with gutters.
Jeff Bridges
My website's kind of fun for me. I get to do drawings on that. It's kind of fun.
Jeff Bridges
You don't really have to do the things that your character is doing. But us actors, we use something called sense memory. I've certainly been drunk before, and part of my job is to recall that without getting drunk.
Jeff Bridges
Pretend was a big part of my childhood.
Jeff Bridges
Movies are like magic tricks.

There's a bit of the kid in me.
