Mother Teresa was asked what was the meaning of life, and she said to help other people, and I thought, 'What a strange thing to say' - but maybe it's the right thing to say.

More quotes by Jesse Eisenberg
Nothing is harder than working with an actor who doesn't take it seriously or show up in the same way that you are.
Jesse Eisenberg
As an actor, you try to bring as much of yourself to a part to try and create a feeling of authenticity and emotional truth and resonance.
Jesse Eisenberg
I had great difficulty in school interacting with others, and I took refuge in the contrived setting of play acting, which is what I still do.
Jesse Eisenberg
In acting class, you're trained to express yourself as much as you can.
Jesse Eisenberg
I'm not into music - the only music I like is musical theater, but I have every Ween album.
Jesse Eisenberg
Depression, if it's an unconsciously elected experience, is a luxury.
Jesse Eisenberg
The only suggestions I get on my plays is to make them more of what they already are, and that's wonderful.
Jesse Eisenberg
I think there are probably a lot of actors like me who I think probably struggle to feel comfortable in their own lives, and acting in some ways provides a safe context for them to live out emotions that they possibly repress or live out experiences that they are not afforded by virtue of circumstance.
Jesse Eisenberg
I tend to prefer the smaller movies because they shoot more efficiently and so you're are able to maintain that momentum of the character a little more easily.
Jesse Eisenberg
Who walks around proud of things they've done? That's an obnoxious quality.
Jesse Eisenberg
I don't watch the movies I'm in - ever. Sometimes I keep pictures, but that's it. I used to watch my movies, because I didn't want to be rude to the people making them, but I stopped a few years ago. I think it's pretty common among actors. It's like listening to your own voice, but multiplied by a million.
Jesse Eisenberg
The scariest people to turn a movie over to are always the people who are drawing up the poster, because that's the first impression it's going to make. And very often it's portraying a very different film from the one the actors actually did.
Jesse Eisenberg
The truth is people are very nice. The other truth is, it's very annoying to be constantly interrupted. I don't love myself enough to want to share myself with everybody.
Jesse Eisenberg
People think, 'You're an actor, you can afford clothes,' but I just try to take the clothes from the movie, which makes the selecting of film projects that much more difficult, because you try to play characters that might wear something you'd want to wear.
Jesse Eisenberg
Devils don't come from hell beneath us, they come from the sky.
Jesse Eisenberg
The ideal way to approach a character is to find something in yourself that relates in some way.
Jesse Eisenberg
A lot of times the character's experience is not in accordance with the tone of the movie and it's not really my job to account for the tone of the movie. That's the director's job.
Jesse Eisenberg
I'm hardly the most notable person in 'Zombieland.' The other actors in it are way more famous than I am.
Jesse Eisenberg
I have a job that requires me to be in the public eye in the way that makes me extra careful about sharing information.
Jesse Eisenberg
I don't go to movies, I don't own a television, I don't buy magazines and I try not to receive mail, so I'm not really aware of popular culture.
