Leonardo DiCaprio

Leonardo DiCaprio

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 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
It's a weird feeling when people are defining you, and you haven't even defined yourself.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Since I was very young I've been fascinated with nature and I actually wanted to be a marine biologist when I was very young. That was a great passion of mine. So I suppose in the off season when I'm not making movies, I became more and more active as an environmentalist trying to be more vocal about issues that I felt were important.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Dark green is my favorite color. It's the color of nature and the color of money and the color of moss!
