I am completely open to doing a romantic comedy, but I will never do something just for the sake of doing a specific genre or because it's the time or place to do a different type of movie. I think that would be a huge mistake.

More quotes by 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
I've always kind of made sure to maintain the sense of who I am and never be mean or cruel or snotty to anyone. Because, at the end of the day, it's not going to help you last in the business, and who wants to be around someone like that? I don't want to turn into 'that guy.' That guy!
Leonardo DiCaprio
I don't think my parents would be shocked about anything I did, because they're so laid-back.
Leonardo DiCaprio
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
As we progress into the twenty-first century, anyone who considers themselves a realist will have to make the environment a top priority.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I couldn't deal with playing a character who rides motorcycles and has a leather jacket and is a tough kid, y'know?
Leonardo DiCaprio
We actually did a lot of takes on this movie [J. Edgar Hoover]. I never left the set wanting more. That's for sure. I don't know. This was a very difficult character for me and a lot of the other actors here, and at times we went and did 8 or 9 or 10 takes on a single day.
Leonardo DiCaprio
The Gatsby that I remember reading when I was 15 years old in junior high school was far different from the Gatsby I read as an adult.
Leonardo DiCaprio
My mom, Irmelin, taught me the value of life. Her own life was saved by my grandmother during World War II.
Leonardo DiCaprio
What I would do in order to be popular was, I'd put myself on line and joke around and be funny, and I was always known as the crazy kid.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I think everyone has some sort of connection to Gatsby as a character... he's created himself according to his own emotions and dreams and lifted himself by his bootstraps from a poor kid in the Midwest and created this image that is The Great Gatsby and it's a truly American story in that regard.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I urge individuals around the world to stand up, and ask local leaders, if they haven't already, to pledge to purchase cleaner cars, build green facilities, and buy green power like wind or solar energy. Our actions may determine if we become a casualty in the war for a habitable planet for generations to come.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Obviously, we suppress things, emotions, things during the day - thoughts that we obviously haven't thought through enough, and in that state of sleep when our subconscious, or mind just sort of randomly fires off different surreal story structures, and when we wake up we should pay attention to these things.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Acting is the only time when I truly maintain the spontaneity that I want to be present at all times.
Leonardo DiCaprio
My mother is a walking miracle.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I cheated a lot, because I just couldn't sit and do homework. I usually sat next to someone extremely smart.
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
I hate complaining about paparazzi, I hate complaining about being recognised, because if I ultimately didn't want to be an actor or in the public eye, I would quit doing what I do. That's not the reason I do it, but I love the work so much that it's worth it.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I created my foundation as a result of that and my website, and I try to shed some light on some very topical issues right now. The idea is to try to get people to become obviously more knowledgeable about the issue and try to get corporations and individuals to contribute to these nonprofit organizations.
Leonardo DiCaprio
I insist on keeping a level head. I've maintained the same exact home life that I’ve had for 20 years. All I see is more people looking at me than before. But, you know, who cares? You just can't obsess yourself with this fame stuff.
