More quotes by 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
I feel like when I was 13 and I had to go to bar mitzvahs every weekend. This is the same feeling. You have to put on a suit every weekend to go meet with a bunch of Jews.
Jesse Eisenberg
Any time you play a character for a long period of time, regardless of how close it is to you, it infiltrates your life. It's impossible for it not to.
Jesse Eisenberg
I think I'm an abstinence symbol. If I take my shirt off, people will not have babies.
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
Look, I don't have a Facebook page because I have little interest in hearing myself talk about myself any further than I already do in interviews or putting any more about myself online than there already is. But if I wasn't in this position, I'm sure I would use it every day.
Jesse Eisenberg
I meet people who are in movies, and the stuff that they write is terrible, but nobody tells them that because they're famous. So I worry that my stuff might be like that, too.
Jesse Eisenberg
If you look at the movies that come out, most of them are bad, so it's not as if achieving some level of success means you get offered better roles, because frankly they don't seem to exist.
Jesse Eisenberg
I feel very guilty doing magic because you're deceiving somebody.
Jesse Eisenberg
I have one female fan. But she lives with me. I'm not aware of any others.
