I lived by the candlelight for two years because I couldn't afford power. It was nice and romantic at the time, but if you can't afford power you're pretty broke. You endure it.

More quotes by Jeremy Renner
I think, strangely, a strip club can tell you a lot about the city you're in. If you call a strip club Tuna's, I've gotta go in there. Usually you're not seeing the top talent around, but it's not about that. It's about the experience.

Building a house is like producing a movie. There's no right way to do it but a lot of wrong ways. You have to be flexible and creative. You have to move fast, be prepared - or it quickly becomes costly.
Jeremy Renner
I need to react to a script, to feel strongly about it in some way. And I need it to be a complex character for sure. And also, I think a lot about what kind of audience there is for the film, what they're looking for and ways to connect with them in the playing of a character.
Jeremy Renner
I think it's great to be a part of a franchise that is successful. Any franchise is successful because it's a continuation and people have seen it.

I'm attracted to those kinds of roles that could be good or could be bad, and you just don't know.

There is nothing new, from Greek mythology to Shakespeare to every romcom ever made, we're just reimagining the same 12 story plots over and over again - so what makes people keep watching and listening? It's all about the character.

I'm consciously aware, specifically with the comic book world, where there's a built-in fanbase. But, there's a little bit of leniency because there are a couple different universes.
Jeremy Renner
I'm just happy to be working.
Jeremy Renner
I can't totally talk about why we divide, but... it's interesting because we're doing this scene today that's sort of the pinnacle of that. Two gangs fighting against each other, ultimately knowing that... ya know, it's like friends fighting friends. To me it's fun, personally.
Jeremy Renner
I have a bad sweet tooth. I'm pretty good when I have to eat well for work, but otherwise, I could eat a whole roll of raw cookie dough.
Jeremy Renner
Other people can think ahead all they want. I just focus on the task at hand and try to move on.

Not every actor gives their life to do this job. Some just do it as a job. Well, it's my life.
Jeremy Renner
If you dissect my career as an actor, and you can pull out more than enough of those type of movies, from The Hurt Locker and The Town and so on and so forth, and that's kind of where our wheelhouse is. We love it.
Jeremy Renner
Our friendship [ with Don Handfield] has remained all that time, and I'm godfather to his kids, but then when The Hurt Locker came around, I just knew there was a lot of opportunity that was coming in, and just couldn't really manifest any opportunities because things were busy.
Jeremy Renner
I have a hard time saying no if it's right. I don't say no to say no. I said no when I didn't have a pot to piss in. I still said no to big money jobs because they didn't make creative sense to me.
Jeremy Renner
People find themselves in ruts all the time. You're in a complacent lifestyle where you work 9 to 5 and then you add a mortgage and kids. You feel trapped, but guess what, brother? You constructed that life. If you're OK with it, there's nothing wrong with that. But if you've got unease, then you've got to make a change.
Jeremy Renner
We had tried to get a couple books that were written about Ray Kroc, and one of the books, we called the publisher. The publisher actually said, Call McDonald.

I'm blessed to have cool roles in these big movies.
