I like doing things that scare me. I went bungee jumping, but sky diving is just the sickest thing.

I didn't know what types of movies I wanted to do. I want to do things that are different. I want to take my time with each role.

As a little kid growing up in Hollywood, I was called 'a little crazy'. And now I guess I'm still that way.

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
Image
I think sexiness in most people - and this is going to sound superficial - is definitely something you don't plan.

Honored delegates, leaders of the world, I pretend for a living.

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
Image
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.

Love is a sudden revelation: a kiss is always a discovery
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.

My dad's probably one of the kindest people in the world. When I was younger that's not how I was- I was a little spoiled brat.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Image
People want you to be a crazy, out-of-control teen brat. They want you miserable, just like them. They don't want heroes what they want is to see you fall.
