The Gatsby that I remember reading when I was 15 years old in junior high school was far different from the Gatsby I read as an adult.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I'm never really conscious of saying, I'm going to take on a specific role to combat a certain image in the public eye. I think that's pretty manipulative and transparent to the public anyway.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Mother Earth is hurting. And she needs a generation of thoughtful, caring and active kids like all of you to protect her for the future.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Thousands of climate scientists agree that global warming is not only the most threatening environmental problem but also one of the greatest challenges facing all of humanity. We must demand a separation between oil and state. We can get off oil and slow global warming.
Leonardo DiCaprio
We've been given this gift, our planet, and we've found no other place in the universe that we can inhabit. I want to do something to create radical change to help save it. It's our responsibility.
Leonardo DiCaprio
With Romeo and Juliet, you're talking about two people who meet one night, and get married the same night. I believe in love at first sight-but it hasn't happened to me yet.

Leonardo DiCaprio
Fame is not the worst thing. I went to dinner the other night, and the girls in the restaurant ignored me. It was so annoying.
Leonardo DiCaprio
If you can unify the public mind saving an iconic species like the tiger, like they did with the panda, that means you have to protect their habitat and everything that they hunt. And that means saving massive, thousands of acres for them to be able to roam and breed. So it's more of a land effort.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I couldn't deal with playing a character who rides motorcycles and has a leather jacket and is a tough kid, y'know?
Leonardo DiCaprio
To play a repressed gay man, I had to explore what life was like in an era of sexual repression.
Leonardo DiCaprio
As we progress into the twenty-first century, anyone who considers themselves a realist will have to make the environment a top priority.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I think actors make the mistake of finding their little niche in the business and once they try to do something a little darker, boom, they get slapped across the face for it, so they go back to what they did before.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Acting is the only time when I truly maintain the spontaneity that I want to be present at all times.
Leonardo DiCaprio
[Success] always starts with the material it always starts with the truth and honesty of the characters that you read in the screenplay and that's rarely something that can be remedied if it's simply not there by the time you shoot the film. Thank God we had that.
Leonardo DiCaprio
There's so many intangible forces that come into play when making a film, I have no idea what the public will ultimately think of something that I do, let alone critics.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I'll just be the first to say that Ken [Watanabe] should be a national treasure in Japan, because he is an unbelievably talented actor. You couldn't find more of a gentleman. He's sweet, he's kind and he's extremely thoughtful in the work that he does.
