More quotes by Keanu Reeves
You want to play another kind of character in another genre, and it's been something I've been trying to do if I can in the career so far, and it's something I hope to continue because it's interesting to me and you get to do different things as an actor.
Keanu Reeves
I guess living without love, without experiencing it or being able to give it is pretty strong punishment.
Keanu Reeves
It's always wonderful to get to know women, with the mystery and the joy and the depth. If you can make a woman laugh, you're seeing the most beautiful thing on God's Earth.
Keanu Reeves
I had the classic 40 meltdown, I did. It's embarrassing. It was pretty funny. But then I recovered. To me, it was like a second adolescence. Hormonally, my body was changing, my mind was changing, and so my relationship to myself and the world around me came to this assault of finiteness.
Keanu Reeves
I cried over beauty, I cried over pain, and the other time I cried because I felt nothing. I can't help it. I'm just a cliché of myself.
Keanu Reeves
We are the sum of who we are. We pick certain things at certain moments that influenced us.
Keanu Reeves
Life is good when you have a good sandwich.
Keanu Reeves
Our saving grace! Um, as a species [humans] we can be pretty warm and fuzzy. But maybe for this, it's the adaptability, or the heart and soul. We're not all that bad. I don't really know!
Keanu Reeves
I've had the opportunity to work with so many great directors. Different styles, as well, like Gus Van Sant. He just does the casting and the milieu and let's you do your thing, quietly. Bertolucci, who can talk to you about your internal world in quite a creative way or just say, 'Well, put your hand over here.'
Keanu Reeves
Money buys you the freedom to live your life the way you want.
Keanu Reeves
The truth is often terrifying, which I think is one of the motifs of Larry and Andrew's cinema. The cost of knowledge is an important theme. In the second and third films, they explore the consequences of Neo's choice to know the truth. It's a beautiful, beautiful story.
Keanu Reeves
Mortality is very different when you're 20 to when you're 50.
Keanu Reeves
I'm sorry my existence is not very noble or sublime.
Keanu Reeves
I loved the material when I first read it, and the experience of making the film was a great one. So when we came around to complete the trilogy, I just signed on board without even reading the scripts because the experience of the first film was so good.
Keanu Reeves
I used to have nightmares that they would put 'He played Ted' on my tombstone.
Keanu Reeves
On a good night, I get underwear, bras, and hotel-room keys thrown onstage... You start to think that you're Tom Jones.
Keanu Reeves
Sometimes simple things are the most difficult things to achieve.
Keanu Reeves
I'm Mickey Mouse. They don't know who's inside the suit.
Keanu Reeves
I'm not a photographer, so I didn't get into F-stops or ND filters or background, foreground, cross-light, all that stuff. But I was interested in the camera and the lenses. That's the world that I'm moving in, in terms of acting and giving a performance.
Keanu Reeves
But, you know, it's still a drag to get your picture taken when you're eating a sandwich. It's a downer.
