More quotes by Leonardo DiCaprio
You see, I think negative emotions are always trumped by positive emotions.
Leonardo DiCaprio
It's a weird feeling when people are defining you, and you haven't even defined yourself.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I like doing things that scare me. I went bungee jumping, but sky diving is just the sickest thing.
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
Protecting our future on this planet depends on the conscious evolution of our species.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I grew up in Hollywood but not in any rich neighborhood.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I have never been a fashionista or someone who puts a lot of thought into what I wear, and I dress to be as comfortable as I possibly can.
Leonardo DiCaprio
When I grew up, I lived in the ghettos of Hollywood it was the most disgusting place to be. I was known as the crazy little kid. I did impressions. Then I realized that's not what I want to do. I don't want to be a comedian to please other people.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I've always kind of made sure to maintain the sense of who I am and never be mean or cruel or snotty to anyone. Because, at the end of the day, it's not going to help you last in the business, and who wants to be around someone like that? I don't want to turn into 'that guy.' That guy!
Leonardo DiCaprio
I like girls who are intelligent, somewhat funny, and pretty with a nice personality.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I lived in Hollywood and, ironically, I didn't know you could just go out and get an agent and go on auditions and try and become an actor, I thought it was like a Masonic thing, like a blood line you had to belong to – until I was 13. Then I realised what you had to do. It is the one thing I know I want to do for the rest of my life.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I suppose playing an older man is a way of preparing myself for getting older.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Obviously, we suppress things, emotions, things during the day - thoughts that we obviously haven't thought through enough, and in that state of sleep when our subconscious, or mind just sort of randomly fires off different surreal story structures, and when we wake up we should pay attention to these things.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I prefer ordinary girls - you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing. Most of the girls I go out with are just good friends. Just because I go out to the cinema with a girl, it doesn't mean we are dating.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Our planet's alarm is going off, and it is time to wake up and take action!
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.
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
My dad's probably one of the kindest people in the world. When I was younger that's not how I was- I was a little spoiled brat.
Leonardo DiCaprio
The last thing I want to turn into is a fat Hollywood jerk. I was brought up without much money and I was happy. I don’t think that I will strive for money or success and end up greedy or big-headed. That only leads to unhappiness. I can still be down-to-earth and do this job as long as I enjoy it.
Leonardo DiCaprio
The more I've acted, I've realised that I have a) no control of and b) no way of really quite understanding how people react to anything I do, or any movie I do.
Leonardo DiCaprio
