A fool and his money are quickly parted.
Jeff Bridges
For me and my wife, it was love at first sight.
Jeff Bridges
You can relate to somebody's pain and you have compassion, which can lead to intimacy.
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
My wife holds the kite strings that let me go 'weeeeeee', then she reels me back in.
Jeff Bridges
I'd maybe done about 12 movies when I decided that this was what I was going to do.
Jeff Bridges
I think my love of journalizing my life comes from my mom.
Jeff Bridges
Sometimes, you can not click with somebody, and it can feel awkward.
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 don't really consider myself one of those actors who takes his work home with him.
Jeff Bridges
I think there's a real joy in going to see movies when you discover them yourself.
Jeff Bridges
I had years of partying, and I was kind of surprised and happy I survived it all. Now, being a parent, I look back on it thinking, Oh God, the things you did!
Jeff Bridges
I used to be somebody. Now I’m somebody else.
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
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
I love John Irving's stuff. It's that marriage of comedy and tragedy. It's really terrific.
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
My mother and my father were very nurturing and wonderful examples of how to live your life.
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
Normally, we push away the things we're scared of.
Jeff Bridges
