Sam [Mendes] said he took advantage of the fact that Kate and I were so close for many years. He knew it was something he could harness in our performances, and we knew that too.

More quotes by Leonardo DiCaprio
We've been given this gift, our planet, and we've found no other place in the universe that we can inhabit. I want to do something to create radical change to help save it. It's our responsibility.
Leonardo DiCaprio
If you can unify the public mind saving an iconic species like the tiger, like they did with the panda, that means you have to protect their habitat and everything that they hunt. And that means saving massive, thousands of acres for them to be able to roam and breed. So it's more of a land effort.
Leonardo DiCaprio
The role of Rimbaud is one of the most important roles to play for a young actor.
Leonardo DiCaprio
It does feel like the middle ground has fallen out. I'm only saying that from personal experience, saying, I'd like to make that movie and hearing, Oh, they're not making those types of movies anymore.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I spent a long time in art school so I can really draw. I'll doodle and suddenly I'll find the beginning of the movie in one picture. Usually, I start my stuff on the telephone. Right by the telephone I've got a book of doodles. When I'm on the phone, I'll be doing a drawing eventually.
Leonardo DiCaprio
As far as my own dreams, I'm not a big dreamer, I think obviously we suppress things in life, emotions and thoughts, and we should wake up and look at that.
Leonardo DiCaprio
When I grew up, I lived in the ghettos of Hollywood it was the most disgusting place to be. I was known as the crazy little kid. I did impressions. Then I realized that's not what I want to do. I don't want to be a comedian to please other people.
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
At first I thought I would have to put on an English accent and try a sort of affected Shakespeare thing.
Leonardo DiCaprio
When a role for a young guy is being offered to me, I think of River Phoenix. It feels like a loss.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I'm probably not going to get married unless I live with somebody for 10 or 20 years. But these people, Romeo and Juliet, took a chance and they did it. We don't have the balls that Romeo did.
Leonardo DiCaprio
My first date was with a girl named Cessi. We'd had a beautiful relationship over the phone all summer long. Then she came home and we met to go out for the first time to the movies. When I saw her I was petrified. I couldn't even look her in the eye to talk to her.
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
Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act.
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
We were both [ with Russel Crowe] hand-plucked to do [The Quick and the Death]. He had done Romper Stomper and I had done Gilbert Grape and so we were hand- plucked to do this big budget film. So we were both very bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I don't see why I can't have friends of both sexes without wild rumors being circulated. It's crazy.
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.
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
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
