You can go out and try to do the best work that you can do within the context of what that is, but it's really gotta be about the work and what you're focusing on.

I'm an old-fashioned guy... I want to be an old man with a beer belly sitting on a porch, looking at a lake or something.
Johnny Depp

They’re all about where people come from. The only thing important is where somebody’s going.

You grow up a bit damaged or broken then you have some success but you don't know how to feel good about the work you're doing or the life you're leading.
Johnny Depp

She's kind of a walking poem, she's this perfect beauty...but at the same time very deep, very smart.
Johnny Depp

My experience with Sondheim has been nothing but glorious, especially for a guy who doesn't sing.

Image
I got to take my kids to the London eye with no one looking at me like I was Johnny Depp. They did look at me like I was some kind of sicko walking around with beautiful kids, but I had a perfect disguise.

Every filmmaker's different, every filmmaker has a different approach.
Johnny Depp
Image
If there is any message to my work, it is ultimately that it's ok to be different.
Johnny Depp
Image
I condition myself to believe that once the scene is done, once the movie is done, my job is done, and whatever happens after that is none of my business.
Johnny Depp
Image
I don't drink hard liquor anymore, but I sometimes order Lagavulin just for the smell. It's so good. It's unbelievable.

Image
There were so many great teachers that had so much to offer. The idea of being rigid, why would you do that? People have their things, but why be rigid with any education when you can take things from here and take things from there?
Johnny Depp
Image
I just happen to be a sucker for humor. So anywhere I can sneak in something that I find potentially interesting or funny I do it as much as I can get away with.
Johnny Depp
Image
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
Image
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.

Over the years all these vampire movies have come out and nobody looks like a vampire anymore.
Johnny Depp

Here I was going to work with Pacino thinking, I'm not going to get lucky twice. There's no way. This guy is going to hand me my ass. He looks like the kind of guy who's going to hand you your ass. It's Al Pacino.

[Jack Sparrow]'s a blast to play. I'll be in a deep, dark depression saying goodbye to him. I'll keep the costume and just prance around the house, entertain the kids....I mean, at a certain point, the madness must stop, but for the moment, I can't say that he's done.
Johnny Depp

When you take on the idea of playing someone like Jimmy Bulger, it's a radically different process because you're going into make-up. The only way you can do it is to come out of make-up looking like the guy. If you don't look like the guy, it's going to bug you, all day.

I was definitely never a crowd pleaser.

Everything here is edible even I'm edible. But that, dear children, is cannibalism, and is in fact frowned upon in most societies.
