Yes, I can play younger than my age. But I can play characters older than I am, too. I'm not an actor who can just play the kid.

More quotes by Leonardo DiCaprio
At some point in your career, someone is going to tell you, This stove is hot. Do not touch this stove. And the weird thing is, you'll want to touch it. But resist that urge, man.
Leonardo DiCaprio
The truth of the matter is this - I never look for films specifically, because ultimately if the fundamentals of the character and the script and the director aren't there, it makes it a moot point.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I've never known a situation in my career where a terrible script turned into a movie that was out of this world or was a success.
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
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
I've managed to keep a clear head and remain sane in this business because I remain a kid off-camera.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I remember when I first started having these interpretations of these images, these clichés of what movie stars are and this and that, and they're egomaniacal pricks and tyrants, but in general, for the most part, they're nice people to tell you the truth.
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
I get a friend to travel with me... I need somebody to bring me back to who I am. It's hard to be alone.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Most of the time I just keep to myself. I think like what it would be like to be... someone else.
Leonardo DiCaprio
The things that you did with parents, whether it was spending every Sunday morning with your dad and eating French toast and watching Popeye, or decorating the Christmas tree with our mother - these are memories that help you be happy.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I hate complaining about paparazzi, I hate complaining about being recognised, because if I ultimately didn't want to be an actor or in the public eye, I would quit doing what I do. That's not the reason I do it, but I love the work so much that it's worth it.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I'm probably not going to get married unless I live with somebody for 10 or 20 years. But these people, Romeo and Juliet, took a chance and they did it. We don't have the balls that Romeo did.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Sometimes I wonder will God ever forgive us for what we've done to each other? Then I look around and I realize God left this place a long time ago.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I don't see why I can't have friends of both sexes without wild rumors being circulated. It's crazy.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Sam [Mendes] said he took advantage of the fact that Kate and I were so close for many years. He knew it was something he could harness in our performances, and we knew that too.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I've changed. You can't help it. Your mind starts working in a different way. You feel really scrutinised by people.
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
Dark green is my favorite color. It's the color of nature and the color of money and the color of moss!
Leonardo DiCaprio
I sometimes have to look back and say, Wow, this is amazing what has happened to me. I have been able to fulfill a lot of these dreams that I had when I was very young. It's a pretty amazing feeling. But at the same time it becomes addictive!
