More quotes by 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
My dad has always been the bohemian.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I don't think my parents would be shocked about anything I did, because they're so laid-back.
Leonardo DiCaprio

Climate change is severely impacting the health of our planet and all of its inhabitants, and we must transition to a clean energy economy that does not rely on fossil fuels.
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
It was closer to manual labor than shooting a film. I always think of something Michael Caton-Jones told me: 'Pain is temporary. Film is forever.'
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
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.
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
To play a repressed gay man, I had to explore what life was like in an era of sexual repression.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I suppose playing an older man is a way of preparing myself for getting older.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I was always the kid in school who tried to get attention, not necessarily the class clown, but I'd do little unexpected performances.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I've got this reputation for shooting one take which is a wonderful reputation to have but it's hard to live up to.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I believe humankind has looked at Climate Change in that same way: as if it were a fiction, happening to someone else’s planet, as if pretending that Climate Change wasn’t real would somehow make it go away.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I like doing things that scare me. I went bungee jumping, but sky diving is just the sickest thing.
Leonardo DiCaprio
For the economy itself will die if our ecosystems collapse.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I think the environmental movement is the biggest people's movement in the world. Unfortunately, our governments and corporations haven't responded accordingly to protect our planet's natural resources.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I know a lot of the intense moments in 'Titanic' were made that much easier and were pushed to even further limits because of that relationship.
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.
