I've thought of doing many things in my life, under the influence of life, and I've never actually thought of straddling two carriages while they're moving.

More quotes by Johnny Depp
Even when you're down and blue, just remember that someone out there loves you, even if you don't know it and even if you haven't yet met them. There's someone out there waiting for you, remember that and keep faith. You'll get there.
Johnny Depp
My self-image it still isn't that alright. No matter how famous I am, no matter how many people go to see my movies, I still have the idea that I'm that pale no-hoper that I used to be. A pale no-hoper that happens to be a little lucky now. Tomorrow it'll be all over, then I'll have to go back to selling pens again.
Johnny Depp
I actually tell lies for a living. Exactly. I mean, that's what acting is, really.
Johnny Depp
Now, bring me that horizon.
Johnny Depp
You do a movie, depending on the character, there's some degree of makeup involved, especially when you're playing a vampire and you're all white and kind of dead. Sleeves, regarding costumes, there are generally sleeves, which I appreciate. I think we all do.
Johnny Depp
And it hurts so much to want something you can't have.
Johnny Depp
My recipe for success is chance, basically. Just luck. It's a miracle that people still hire me after some of the stuff I've gotten away with. Honestly!
Johnny Depp
I think Alice [Cooper] probably, on some level, recognized that good old self-destructive streak that does happen in some people's lives. So, though I wasn't there with Alice and the Vampires, but I'd give anything in the world to have been, I had my own version, I suppose, a little later.
Johnny Depp
I realized that it was great to have a job, but it didn't have anything remotely to do with what I was striving for, so why was I doing it?
Johnny Depp
I've been told I smell good. I don't look like I smell good.
Johnny Depp
My experience with Sondheim has been nothing but glorious, especially for a guy who doesn't sing.
Johnny Depp
Obviously, technology is moving and reshaping itself, radically, every day. We're all capable of answering that question within ourselves. Would you do it for the person that you love? Would you be married to a hard drive, essentially?
Johnny Depp
I may have a feather duster down my pants.
Johnny Depp
I try to stay in a constant state of confusion just because of the expression it leaves on my face.
Johnny Depp
I actually did do a musical many years ago with John Waters called Cry-Baby, but technically it was only half me - it wasn't me singing. Tim's [ Burton] the only person brave enough to actually let me try to sing.
Johnny Depp
I'm attracted to the extreme light and the extreme dark. I'm interested in the human condition and what makes people tick. I'm interested in the things people try to hide.
Johnny Depp
The funny thing is you oddly don't really say goodbye to all the characters you've played. There's like a chest of drawers in your head that you can always access. They're always around. I'm not sure if that's healthy. But they're all there.
Johnny Depp
In terms of playing like a straight leading man type thing, I feel like all these guys are kind of not necessarily leading men but straight kind of characters. Even though they may seem bizarre or strange, I feel like I think everybody's nuts. I mean, I really do. And the weirdest thing in the world is to see some guy who is just super earnest.
Johnny Depp
When I see someone who just follows their dream and succeeds, and just does basically what they want to do and doesn't have to answer to anyone, obviously not harming anyone, that's great.
Johnny Depp
For me, the question was, how can one take a live-action performance and put it in the parameter of one of those cartoons? How much can you get away with?
