More quotes by 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've changed. You can't help it. Your mind starts working in a different way. You feel really scrutinised by people.
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
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
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
A man's legacy is determined by how the story ends.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Most of the time I do feel like I need someone else when I'm alone. But I can still get by with just my own company and that makes me a stronger person.
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!
Leonardo DiCaprio
I have no problem playing anyone who has different politics than me. In fact, I don't take that into consideration at all. You have to find something sympathetic in a man. It's that common ground you need to connect with someone.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Some people don't get it when I'm being sarcastic.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Acting is the only time when I truly maintain the spontaneity that I want to be present at all times.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I touched emotions I've never tapped in my entire life. I've heard people say, 'I hope this movie doesn't glamorise drugs.
Leonardo DiCaprio
At first glance, you read something on the page and it can seem one way, and you can have your decisions before you wind up on set about what that set is supposed to mean, but until you're actually there doing them, there's really no way to understand it.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I don't think I ever expected anything like an Oscar ever, to tell you the truth. That is not my motivation when I do these roles. I really am motivated by being able to work with great people and create a body of work that I can look back and be proud of.
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've been planted here to be a vessel for acting... That's why I'm really taking any part, regardless of how complicated it's going to be.
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
What I would do in order to be popular was, I'd put myself on line and joke around and be funny, and I was always known as the crazy kid.
Leonardo DiCaprio
It's amazing to completely focus on something for four, five or six months, have it completely consume your life and be constantly thinking about somebody else's set of circumstances and how they would react to something. I find it fascinating. It's rewarding and on a professional and personal level.
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.
