I love acting and I love it in all its different manifestations.
Mark Ruffalo
The fact that I can make a living and support three kids and my wife doing what I love to do... who does that? That's golden. It's a very privileged thing.

But, the relationships that I see work - As long as they're telling the truth, and saying the things that you don't ever want to have to say to another human being.

Mark Ruffalo
I like extremes. I like to change things up and keep from getting complacent or stale.
Mark Ruffalo
A leader in America or anyone who says they truly care about this nation without taking some kind of action is either a liar or insane. In either case, they are unfit to lead.
Mark Ruffalo
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
I try to do the things that speak to me in one way or another, and sometimes I'm even drastic.
Mark Ruffalo
I ran to my marriage, I was happily ready to take on marriage.
Mark Ruffalo
I like to disappear in the parts I play.
Mark Ruffalo
Graduates, I'm asking each of you, at some point, to act up, be misbehaved. Buck the system. Fight for what you believe in. This is the time to do it. You're the ones to do it. Your world, is like no other generation, you actually get to create the world that you can imagine.
Mark Ruffalo
I like to think the movies that I've picked have something worthwhile to say. Something relevant.
Mark Ruffalo
I'd never seen anyone do a rebuttal review to some of the reviews.
Mark Ruffalo
Actors, you kind of have these ebbs and flows. These moments where you're in your glory - where you're really cracking - and moments where you're not.
