I don't understand how people can take a gentle, loving life and treat it with such cruelty.
Mark Ruffalo
We only gain collectively by acting now. We gain by one day not having to pay a thing for fuel. We gain by having cleaner air, water, and food so that we are healthier and our health care costs come down. We gain by deflating the global fossil fuel markets that drive much of the conflict around the world.

Artists have always been the front line that's part of our responsibility. But a lot of the big actors come out, they get slammed, and then they retreat.
Mark Ruffalo
Ask people who are close to the natural world: farmers, people who work the land or in some way use the land for their livelihoods. They will tell you what they are seeing isn't so good. They will tell you the changes they have seen in the past twenty years are remarkable in one way or another and unlike anything they had seen before that.
Mark Ruffalo
I like to think the movies that I've picked have something worthwhile to say. Something relevant.
Mark Ruffalo
Do theater. Because you'll develop a craft that you'll always have. It'll give you a chance to really learn how to act and you won't go into the world with a few measly tricks that will only carry you so far.
Mark Ruffalo
My dad [...] sent me a text saying, 'You know who you should play? Columbo. That's your Academy Award.'

I don't know, one out of every two marriages ends up in divorce so there's a lot of great people out there who people aren't happy with.
Mark Ruffalo
I still feel like I'm trying to make it. It's hard to shed the struggling actor thing.

My belief about acting in one foot on a banana peel and the other one in the grave.
