More quotes by Leonardo DiCaprio
To put a lot of hard work and effort into a project or character and for it to be recognised, how can it not be nice?
Leonardo DiCaprio
I've gotten to play some pretty intense characters and I tend to think it's therapeutic for me.
Leonardo DiCaprio
The best thing about acting is that I get to lose myself in another character and actually get paid for it. As for myself, I'm not really sure who I am. I change every day.
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
The first kiss I had was the most disgusting thing in my life. The girl injected about a pound of saliva into my mouth, and when I walked away I had to spit it all out.
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
When I can't immediately define the character, and there's an element of mystery to it and still a lot to be explored, that's when I say yes.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I like doing things that scare me. I went bungee jumping, but sky diving is just the sickest thing.
Leonardo DiCaprio
My mother is a walking miracle.
Leonardo DiCaprio
School, I never truly got the knack of. I could never focus on things I didn't want to learn.
Leonardo DiCaprio
My parents know I was outgoing as a child, and whenever people came over I'd automatically do impressions of them as soon as they left it was my mom's favorite thing.
Leonardo DiCaprio
You see, I think negative emotions are always trumped by positive emotions.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Mozambique is having an economic resurgence but still four out of 10 people there have HIV or AIDS...There's astounding conditions but what I was left with...was the power of the human spirit there and the fact these people have been through so much and they were still dancing in the streets
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
I just want to keep doing what I'm doing and hopefully people will watch my movies.
Leonardo DiCaprio
With Romeo and Juliet, you're talking about two people who meet one night, and get married the same night. I believe in love at first sight-but it hasn't happened to me yet.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand your gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count.
Leonardo DiCaprio
If a film is good, and I'm sort of able to sit there and absorb myself within that world. And get lost. That is a pretty powerful tool. And there's not many paintings out there, that make me want to stare at it for hours at a time, and wonder where I am!
Leonardo DiCaprio
I don't think my parents would be shocked about anything I did, because they're so laid-back.
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.
