More quotes by Keanu Reeves
Energy can't be created or destroyed, and energy flows. It must be in a direction, with some kind of internal, emotive, spiritual direction. It must have some effect somewhere.
Keanu Reeves
I've been really fortunate to be able to do different kinds of films in different scales, different genres, different kinds of roles, and that is important to me.
Keanu Reeves
I did do some things different [in John Wick 2], but it's different on basically the same things. Because I have the background from the first film, it was really the first time I was doing judo and jiu-jitsu.
Keanu Reeves
I like meeting directors. It can be helpful because sometimes when you meet filmmakers you find out if you like them and if they like you, and that is important in terms of considering a role. Choosing a role is all about whether I relate to the role and the story really. That's the criteria.
Keanu Reeves
Mortality is very different when you're 20 to when you're 50.
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
The acting experience and the collaborating and creating the world, working on the piece, they're the same joys.
Keanu Reeves
I loved the role [of John Wick]. I loved the action. I loved all the new characters. The world expands into the Underworld. It's getting bigger. Yeah, it was a really great experience [in John Wick 2].
Keanu Reeves
How do I confront aging? With a wonder and a terror. Yeah, I'll say that. Wonder and terror.
Keanu Reeves
I guess living without love, without experiencing it or being able to give it is pretty strong punishment.
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
And of course to work with Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton, and work with a wonderful, beautiful script directed by Nancy Meyers, it was really for me a dream come true.
Keanu Reeves
Environmental issues are on everyone's mind. It's part of our culture now and I can only applaud and laud anyone who is doing what they can and raising awareness.
Keanu Reeves
The inspiration really comes first from the character and the story. That vision of what the story is, and what the character is, the world that they inhabit and what the story wants to tell. That's really what inspires me.
Keanu Reeves
And it's easy to stay grounded. The ground is very close. And we walk on it every day.
Keanu Reeves
Sure I believe in God and the Devil, but they don't have to have pitchforks and a long white beard.
Keanu Reeves
Fame is drag. The paparazzi culture is more pervasive than it used to be. On the positive side, it’s nice not to have to worry about bills.
Keanu Reeves
The blues have always had some of the best times, best feelings I’ve ever had.
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.
